Ever get too engrossed in reading a particularly interesting book for too long and then later, literally beat your head against a wall searching for a cure for stiff neck? Sounds familiar?
One of the most uncomfortable and irritating ailments is neck pain or a stiff neck. It affects us all at some point in life.
Knowing About Neck Pain
For most people, a stiff neck is the result of bad posture. However, there are a number of reasons that can be responsible for this.
Injury in the form of fall or blow to the neck area can lead to a stiffness in the neck. The nerves between the shoulder and the neck are injured in such situations and can manifest itself in the form of neck stiffness.
A condition called radiculopathy occurs due to repetitive stress on the neck or continued bad posture, resulting in pain in the neck muscles.
Diagnosing A Stiff Neck
In most cases, except for serious ailments like spinal stenosis, the most common form of relieving stiffness in the neck is to correct your posture and take proper rest. However, in a world where time is a luxury most cannot afford, most people would run to the nearest dispensary and get themselves a pain relief ointment. But the question here is, whether the ointment is actually a cure for stiff neck or whether it makes way for future ailments?
Considering that most commercial pain relief medicines contain chemicals like toluene, dioxane, parabens, etc. the long-term effects of using such medicine easily weigh out the short-term relief they provide.
Most available ointments for this ailment have other nasty side effects like bad odor and may cause rashes or inflammation on the skin.
