What Causes Severe Neck Pain Every Morning?

Spondylosis / Spondylitis
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for the query.
Early morning stiffness and pain is charecteristic of spondylitis. YOu should get an Xray of the cervical region both AP view and lateral view to confirm with initial signs.
Immediate heat therapy and massage over the painful areas would ease the pain and also loosen the muscles around the neck which were not moving all during the night. Use of pillow is controversial and choose better mattress.
I suggest you go to an Spine surgeon/Orthopedic surgeon for the order of an Xray and get this done.
It is generally autoimmune conditions, general wear and tear sometimes old injury that cause spondylitis.
Please see the Orthopedic surgeon for more information and triage.
All the best and if you do not have more queries please close and rate my answeer.
