Why does my neck hurt from desk work? | You Deserve Well

Why does my neck hurt from desk work?

Long periods in one position, a tense jaw and shoulders, stress and little movement all load the neck muscles. Neck pain is rarely about "bad posture" alone, it is more about staying still for hours and not building strength to support it.

Change position often, strengthen your upper back and shoulders, and build gentle neck control. Numbness, weakness in the arm or pain after an injury should be checked by a doctor.
