Neck pain

Michael Devereaux. Med Clin North Am. 2009 Mar.

Abstract

Neck pain is less common than low back pain but still a relatively common reason for seeing a primary care physician. Therefore, it is necessary for the primary care physician to be comfortable with salient points in the history and to be able to perform a basic neurologic examination. Important aspects of the history and physical examination are reviewed. Important clinical syndromes and treatment options are also reviewed.
