Chronic Neck Muscle Inflammation

We often overlook the early signs of neck stiffness, tightness, or sorenesscommon complaints in todays society where people constantly look down at their smartphones. But rather than ignoring these early symptoms, its far better to address them before they progress into chronic neck muscle inflammation.

Why Early Treatment Matters

Failing to treat neck pain promptly can lead to chronic inflammation, which significantly affects ones quality of life and work performance. Persistent inflammation can even increase the risk of nerve compression caused by herniated discs or vertebral misalignment.

What Is Chronic Neck Muscle Inflammation?

Chronic neck muscle inflammation is defined as neck pain lasting more than 12 weeks. It may involve one or more muscle groups and typically stems from repetitive overuse or poor posture during daily activities. It affects people of all ages.

Common symptoms include:

• Persistent stiffness or tightness in the neck or upper neck area
  
• Limited range of neck movement
  
• Pain may radiate to the head, shoulders, or back

  A small amount of the patients blood is processed to extract plasma rich in growth factors and platelets. This is then injected into the affected area to repair cells, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue regeneration.
  
• Nucleic Acid Injections (Bioactive Peptides):
  Support cellular health and function.
