Neck pain can be caused by various factors, such as muscle strain, poor posture, injury, and underlying medical conditions. Also, prolonged periods of sitting in front of the computer (a sedentary lifestyle) can lead to increased muscle tension and stiffness which affects the neck’s function.
It’s not always centralized in the neck. It can radiate across your whole upper body, affecting shoulders, arms, chest, and jaw; in addition, it could cause headaches. Living with neck pain can be hard as it affects daily activities which makes it hard to focus and get through the day.
