Chronic neck pain is neck pain that persists for months. It may relate to muscle strain, joint or disc changes, injury such as whiplash, or posture, and sometimes no specific cause is found.

How is Chronic Neck Pain usually assessed?

Clinicians usually take a history and examine movement, strength and nerve function. Imaging or other tests may be used when findings suggest a specific cause.

What kinds of treatments are studied for Chronic Neck Pain?

Registered studies cover medicines, medical devices (such as nerve stimulators), procedures (such as nerve blocks or injections), physical and movement therapies, psychological approaches (such as cognitive behavioural therapy), education programs and digital tools.
