What is Shoulder and Neck Pain?<\/h2>

Shoulder and neck pain are common ailments today. It is usually caused by muscle tension caused by long-term computer use, incorrect posture and stress. Conditions such as rotator cuff injuries, tendonitis, and arthritis in the shoulder can also cause pain. Neck pain is often caused by disc degeneration, spinal stenosis, or neck straightening. Diagnosis is made through physical examination, radiological examinations and sometimes EMG tests. Treatment methods may include physical therapy, medication, sometimes injection treatments or surgical intervention. Prevention is possible with regular exercises and ergonomic work environments.<\/p>
