The neck (cervical spine) is composed of vertebral column that begin in the upper torso and end at the base of the skull. The bony vertebrae along with the ligaments (which are comparable to thick rubber bands) give stability to the spine. The muscles allow for support and activity. The neck has a large amount of activity and supports the weight of the head. However, since it is less protected than the rest of the spine, the neck can be vulnerable to injury and disorders that produce pain and restrict motion. For several people, neck pain is a temporary condition that disappears with time. Other people need medical diagnosis and treatment to relieve their symptoms.
