Woman holding her neck due to pain

Neck pain. Posterior view of a woman holding her neck due to pain. This pain may be caused by muscle spasm in her neck. Alternatively it could be due to a whiplash injury in which soft tissues, ligaments and spinal joints are injured due to the neck being suddenly and forcibly bent. Neck fractures or a slipped disc may be to blame where there is intense neck pain. Treatments of mild neck pain include painkilling drugs and massage
