What is the result of neck pain? It prevents
you from moving your neck as you want. Pain is crazy
like that! It keeps us from doing things that could
damage us. Ok, that is not all bad! But neck pain can disturb
more than just motion. It can alter daily living.
Fort Wayne chiropractic at Aaron Chiropractic Clinic can help reduce
neck pain and reestablish its normal motion.
NECK PAIN LIMITS MOTION
Not merely does neck pain restrict
cervical spine motion, it also necessitates compensatory motions
to do what needs to be done. If the neck hurts
when twisting to the left, you won’t do that. That is a compensatory motion. Normal flexion/extension,
lateral, and rotational motions have been recorded in
normal patients. (1) And if you think your ability to move
your neck alters your life, think about
baseball pitchers! College baseball pitchers with limited neck motion during
preseason were found to be at higher risk of game
time loss as well as shoulder and elbow disability during
the season. (2) That’s really life-altering
for them and their life dreams! Know that your Fort Wayne chiropractor
can know from a thorough clinical examination just how pain is
affecting your normal range of motion and how to help
you (whether you are a baseball player or not!) get
it back.
NECK ISSUES INFLUENCE SLEEP APNEA
Another interesting cervical spine discovery
is that prior cervical spondylosis – degenerative
changes in the cervical spine that often happen with aging, resulting in vertebral bone degeneration, disc degeneration, bone
spur formation and the like - and obstructive sleep apnea are related.
Such sleep apnea is linked to cervical spine
changes that constrict the airway space such as occur
with cervical spondylosis. (3) Cervical spondylosis is another spinal
issue your Fort Wayne chiropractor know
well.
