How Can Severe Pain And Stiffness In The Neck Be Treated?
My mother , who is 94, has had chronic neck pain and stiff neck for three or four years now. she has currently given up with doctors, and cannot move her neck from side to side. She has to move her whole body to look each way. She is in constant pain. Is there anything or anyone out there who she should see, specialist, or something she can do the relieve the pain and give her more mobility??? The X-rays indicate she has a pinched nerve.
Good day and thank you for posting this question. Your Mom's would need to see an Orthopaedics, he is an expert doctor that would be appropriate for your Mom's. She will also benefit from Physiotherapy.
I hope it helps. Thank you.
