When to See a Doctor for Neck Pain Treatment

Odds are, you’re going to experience mild neck pain every now and then. Factors like poor posture and sleeping in an uncomfortable position can easily leave you with a sore neck. And while many cases of neck pain can be treated at home with self-care measures like stretching and heat therapy, you should seek neck pain treatment from an orthopedic professional if your discomfort:

• Persists for more than a week
• Makes it difficult to perform everyday activities
• Is accompanied by muscle weakness, numbness, or tingling sensations
• Is accompanied by pain that travels down your arms or legs

Rarely, neck pain is indicative of an emergency condition. Call 911 or go to an emergency room if:

• Your neck suddenly becomes stiff
• Your stiff neck is accompanied by headache or fever
• Your neck pain is accompanied by loss of bladder or bowel control
• You have neck pain following trauma, such as a fall, blow to the head, or car accident
