Neck pain is common—but not all neck pain is harmless. Some symptoms act as red flags, indicating serious cervical spine conditions that require urgent medical attention.
In this video, Dr Hitesh Garg, Head of Ortho Spine Surgery at Artemis Hospital, explains the danger signs of neck pain you should never ignore. These include pain radiating to the arms, tingling or numbness in hands, weakness, difficulty walking, loss of balance, and problems with bladder or bowel control.
Dr Garg discusses how conditions like cervical disc prolapse, cervical myelopathy, nerve compression, and spinal cord involvement can present subtly—and why early diagnosis is critical to prevent permanent damage.
