Still dealing with chronic neck pain?
While temporary stiffness is common, ongoing pain isn’t normal — and your daily habits might be making it worse.
Common lifestyle culprits include:
• Poor posture that adds extra pressure to your spine and discs
• Excess technology use leading to “tech neck”
• Sleeping positions and unsupportive pillows that strain the neck
• Carrying heavy bags that throw off your balance
• Stress and tension causing muscle tightness
What you can do:
• Take breaks from digital devices
• Practice good posture throughout the day
• Switch to more supportive sleeping positions and pillows
• Manage stress with exercise, stretching, or relaxation techniques
If your neck pain doesn’t improve — or comes with numbness, tingling, or headaches — it may be time to seek professional care.
