What causes neck pain?
Neck pain is extremely common, and most of it is not serious. The usual causes are:
- Muscular and postural strain — the most common cause, from desk work, phones, or sleeping position.
- Cervical spondylosis — age-related wear of the joints and discs in the neck.
- A pinched nerve — where a disc or bony change presses on a nerve, sending pain, numbness or tingling into the arm.
What is cervical spondylosis?
Cervical spondylosis simply means age-related wear in the neck. It is very common and often causes neck pain and stiffness, sometimes with occasional headaches. The reassuring part is that most people are managed well with posture correction, targeted exercises, physiotherapy and medicines — without needing surgery.
How an online consultation helps
Neck pain is diagnosed mainly from your symptoms and history — which works very well on a video call. Prof. Dr. Ahmed Ali will listen carefully, check how your neck moves, guide you on posture, exercises and treatment, and tell you clearly whether a scan is actually needed. You leave with a practical plan you can start straight away.
