Many People Assume Neck Pain Comes With Age — But This Common Cause Is Often Overlooked

One of the most frustrating things about neck pain is how easy it is to blame on everything else. People often assume it must be bad posture, too much screen time, stress, or simply “sleeping wrong.” And to be fair, all of those things can play a role. But that’s also what makes this kind of discomfort so easy to brush off. You tell yourself it’ll go away on its own. Then the same thing happens again the next morning. That’s when people usually start noticing a pattern.
