Overview
The exact pathogenesis of neck pain is not fully understood.It is thought that neck pain is the result of disturbed oxidative metabolism and increase levels of pain-generating substances in neck muscles,that cause impaired local muscle circulation.Is caused by either changing coordination of cervical muscles and impaired proprioception in the neckand shoulders.
