Neck Pain Causes Are a Primary Condition

Neck pain causes other problems like tingling and numbness, not to mention disrupted sleep and impeded work.

Other problems like sciatica nerve flare-ups, back muscle pain and tingling sensations or numbness are identified as secondary conditions.

First, let’s define the phrase Secondary Condition. The word secondary implies there must also be a primary, or an underlying condition causing all of your pain. That is probably true for most chiropractic patients.

 

 

The primary condition is usually identified as Anterior Head Syndrome (AHS) or Forward Head Posture (FHP). And this condition is known to cause a whole host of other problems:neck-pain-blue skeletal on black 8156509
