Neck Pain

Spine Surgeon in Ahmedabad

What Is Neck Pain?

Neck pain is a common problem that can affect people of all ages. It happens when muscles, joints, nerves, or discs in the neck get strained, injured, or affected by other spine problems. Sometimes it is mild and temporary, but in some cases, it can become chronic and affect daily life.

Symptoms of Neck Pain

  • Constant or recurring pain in the neck
  • Stiffness or difficulty turning the head
  • Pain spreading to shoulders, arms, or upper back
  • Tingling, numbness, or weakness in arms or hands
  • Headaches, often starting from the neck
  • In severe cases: trouble with balance or coordination

Causes of Neck Pain

  • Poor posture – Long hours on computer, mobile, or incorrect sitting habits
  • Muscle strain – Overuse, heavy lifting, or sudden movement
  • Injuries – Whiplash from accidents or sports injuries
  • Degenerative changes – Age-related wear and tear, arthritis, or disc problems
  • Herniated disc – When a disc in the cervical spine bulges or ruptures
  • Spinal infections or tumors – Rare, but can also cause neck pain

Who Is at Risk?

You may have a higher chance of neck pain if you:
  • Work long hours at a desk or computer
  • Use mobile devices frequently with poor posture
  • Have weak neck or back muscles
  • Suffer from arthritis or disc problems

Diagnosis

Doctors may recommend:
  • Physical examination – To check movement, posture, and muscle strength
  • X-rays – To see bone changes or injuries
  • MRI or CT scans – To detect disc problems, nerve compression, or tumors
  • Nerve tests (EMG) – If numbness, tingling, or weakness is present

Treatment for Neck Pain

  • Lifestyle changes – Correct posture, ergonomic support, and rest
  • Medicines – Pain relievers, muscle relaxants, or anti-inflammatory drugs
  • Physiotherapy – Stretching and strengthening exercises to improve posture and flexibility
  • Injections – For severe nerve-related pain
  • Surgery – Only needed if there is nerve compression, herniated disc, or tumors causing serious symptoms

Advanced Treatment With O-arm® O2® Imaging

At Indospine Hospital, we use the O-arm® O2® Surgical Imaging System when surgery is needed for complex neck conditions:
  • Provides clear 2D and 3D images of the cervical spine
  • Ensures accurate diagnosis and surgical planning
  • Guides safe placement of screws and implants
  • Helps protect nerves and spinal cord during surgery
  • Improves recovery and reduces repeat surgeries
For any spine-related concerns, feel free to contact Dr. Tarak Patel at Indospine Hospital. To book an appointment or for more information, call us at +91 99090 44981.

FAQs on Neck Pain

1. Is neck pain always serious?
No. Most cases are mild and improve with rest and physiotherapy. But if pain persists, medical check-up is important.
Poor posture, muscle strain, and long screen time are the most common causes.
Yes. Tension and stiffness in the neck can lead to cervicogenic headaches.
If neck pain lasts more than a few weeks, or comes with numbness, weakness, or balance issues, consult a spine specialist.
Surgery is needed only in rare cases when other treatments don’t work, or if there is nerve compression, disc herniation, or tumors.
