Your neck is made up of vertebrae and it includes an intricate maze of nerves, muscles, and bones that support your head and connects your cervical spine to the base of your skull. Any abnormalities, inflammation, or injury can cause neck pain or stiffness. Acute neck pain comes on suddenly and may result from an accident or injury. Chronic neck pain lasts much longer, sometimes over the course of several months or years.
