Neck Pain is a common medical condition. Neck pain can come from a number of disorders and diseases of any tissues in the neck, such as degenerative disc disease, neck strain, whiplash, a herniated disc, or a pinched nerve. Neck pain is also referred to as Cervical Pain.

The symptoms include pain in the neck and is commonly associated with dull aching. Sometimes pain in the neck is worsened with movement of the neck. Other symptoms associated with some forms of neck pain include numbness, tingling, tenderness, sharp shooting pain, fullness, difficulty swallowing, pulsations, swishing sounds in the head, dizziness or lightheadedness etc.

In diagnosing the cause of neck pain, it is important to review the history of the symptoms. In doing so, the doctor will note the location, intensity, duration, and radiation of the pain. Any past injury to the neck is noted. Aggravating and/or relieving positions or motions are also recorded. Further testing of undiagnosed neck pain can include X-ray evaluation, bone scan, MRI scan.

When you need a high-energy fix, do you reach for a power bar or power shake? Or do you resort to caffeine, chocolate, or high-sugar snacks when you feel that end of the day sag? It may surprise you, but the real energy-boosters are fresh fruits, vegetables, spices, and whole grains. These are the foods that are rich in Chetna, the healing and nurturing influence of nature. They are so alive with natures intelligence that fatigue-causing toxins cannot accumulate in the body when you eat them.
