Neck and Back Pain

One of the more concerning forms of pain people experience is spine pain. Even though the spine plays an essential role in the central nervous system, there is no need to panic – as long as the issue is being addressed by a medical specialist, of course.

Neck and back pain are usually caused by:

• Injuries
• Muscle strains
• Arthritis
