Neck and shoulder pain can be frustrating, especially when it interferes with daily activities like working at a desk, carrying groceries, or even sleeping comfortably. One of the more common causes of these symptoms is cervical radiculopathy, which occurs when a nerve in the neck is pinched or irritated.
