Several muscles and ligaments surround that column of vertebrae and discs to support the weight of your head and enable its motion.

Neck pain, in some cases, could be triggered by an accident. This could be a sports injury, a fall, or as the result of an auto accident. Auto accidents are one of the leading causes of neck pain and often leave accident victims suffering from whiplash, headaches, or herniated and bulging discs.

Until recently, researchers believed that back pain would heal on its own. We have learned, however, that this is not true.
