Neck pain is a common musculoskeletal problem that can limit your range of motion and interfere with daily activities like driving or using a computer. While often not serious, it can reduce mobility, productivity, and overall quality of life.

For effective neck pain treatment in Los Angeles, Dr. Sheps, D.C. provides expert care at his Brentwood practice. Using targeted therapies, he addresses the root causes of neck pain, reduces inflammation, and promotes healing so you can regain comfort and mobility.

What is Neck Pain?

Neck pain refers to discomfort or stiffness in the neck, which may also radiate to the shoulders, upper back, or arms. It’s a common condition caused by muscle strain, poor posture (especially from looking down at screens), injuries like whiplash, or underlying issues such as herniated discs or arthritis.

In many cases, early intervention with non-invasive therapies can help alleviate symptoms, improve mobility, and prevent the pain from becoming chronic.

Every body is different, so injuries and conditions can affect people in unique ways. After evaluating your condition, Dr. Sheps will recommend a personalized neck pain treatment in Los Angeles plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some frequently asked questions about neck pain.

Make an appointment with Dr. Sheps if your neck pain lasts for more than a few days and doesn’t improve with rest, ice, and over-the-counter (OTC) pain medication. Even though most people experience occasional neck pain, persistent discomfort can indicate an underlying problem like arthritis or a herniated disc. Promptly treating neck problems provides quick relief and reduces the risk of complications. 

Neck pain is sometimes caused by poor posture. For example, if you regularly sit at a computer, the muscles in your neck must contract to hold your head up. Over time, this causes the muscles to become stiff and inflamed. 

Dr. Sheps treats neck pain caused by various things, including:

  • Bone spurs
  • Herniated discs
  • Arthritis
  • Osteoporosis
  • Auto accident injuries (whiplash)
  • Compressed nerves
  • Neuropathy (nerve damage)
  • Deteriorated joints
  • Strained muscles
  • Headaches and migraines

Dr. Sheps reviews your medical records and asks about your symptoms, including where the pain is, what it feels like, and if it’s worse when you drive or sit at a computer. Answer Dr. Sheps’ questions as thoroughly as possible, because they provide key insights into treatment. 

Dr. Sheps examines your neck, shoulders, and upper back. He checks for redness, swelling, and bruising and gently presses on your skin to identify sensitive spots. Dr. Sheps asks you to move your head up and down and from side to side. He orders X-rays or an ultrasound to examine your neck vertebrae and the surrounding soft tissues.
