Hi, Neck pain is often caused by a strain or spasm of the neck muscles or inflammation of the neck joints. Examples of common activities that may cause this type of minor injury include: Holding your head in a forward posture or odd position while working, watching TV, or reading. Sleeping on a pillow that is too high or too flat or that doesn't support your head, or sleeping on your stomach with your neck twisted or bent. Spending long periods of time resting your forehead on your upright fist or arm ("thinker's pose").Stress. Tension may make the muscles that run from the back of the head across the back of the shoulder (trapezius muscle) feel tight and painful. Work or exercise that uses your upper body and arms. Consult orthopedician....
