Differentiating neck pain from other Diseases

Differentiating neck pain from other diseases on the basis of

Diseases symptoms physical examination
Cervical strain Pain , stiffness on neck movement Tenderness on palpation of neck and trapezius muscles
"Whiplash" injury Pain on neck movement following an abrupt extension–flexion type injury ,headache, shoulder or back pain, dizziness, paresthesias, fatigue Decreased range of motion associated with neck spasm
Cervical discogenic pain Pain , stiffness on neck movement,cervical radicular symptoms Decreased range of motion with pain
Cervical myofascial pain Focal pain and pressure sensitivity;accompanied by a sensation of burning or stinging Localized tenderness
Cervical radiculopathy Pain, numbness,tingling in a dermatomal distribution,weakness in upper extremity Decreased or altered sensation, diminished deep tendon reflexes
Cervical spondylotic myelopathy Lower extremity weakness, gait or coordination difficulties, and bowel or bladder dysfunction Focal neurologic signs in upper and/or lower, Lhermitte's sign
Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament neck pain, progressive radiculopathy, myelopathy symptoms Focal neurologic signs in upper and/or lower extremities
Tension headache
Coronary artery disease
Infection
Malignancy
Referred shoulder pain
Polymyalgia rheumatica
Fibromyalgia
