Cervical Spinal Pain
Using the power of innovative science and modern technology, Dr SW Clinics can help you live your best pain-free life without the need for invasive surgery.
Cervical spinal pain, often referred to as neck pain, is a common condition that affects the cervical spine, which is the portion of the spine located in the neck region.
This type of pain can range from mild and occasional discomfort to severe and chronic pain. It can also vary in intensity and duration and may be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-term). Cervical spinal pain can result from various underlying causes and conditions, and its symptoms can range from mild to severe.
Cervical spinal pain is localised to the neck area, typically between the base of the skull and the upper shoulders.
At Dr SW Clinics, we can treat a range of pain conditions using Regenerative Medicine and pain-relieving injections. If you are tired of living with pain and looking for a non-surgical intervention, then Dr SW Clinics could help you get back to your optimal quality of life.

FAQ's
- Muscle Strain: One of the most common causes of neck pain is muscle strain or tension. Poor posture, overuse of neck muscles, or sudden movements can lead to muscle strain.
- Cervical Disc Degeneration: As people age, the cervical discs between the vertebrae can degenerate, leading to conditions like degenerative disc disease. This can result in neck pain, especially if the degenerated discs press on nerves or cause inflammation.
- Herniated Disc: A herniated or bulging disc in the cervical spine can compress nearby nerves, causing pain in the neck and potentially radiating pain or numbness down the arm. This condition is sometimes referred to as cervical radiculopathy.
- Spinal Stenosis: Cervical spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the spinal canal in the neck, which can put pressure on the spinal cord and nerves, leading to neck pain and neurological symptoms.
- Injuries: Traumatic events like car accidents, falls, or sports injuries can result in various neck injuries, including whiplash or fractures, which can cause significant neck pain.
- Arthritis: Conditions like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis can affect the cervical spine, causing pain and stiffness.
- Pinched Nerves: When nerves in the neck are compressed or pinched due to various causes, it can result in localised pain and radiating symptoms.

Depending on the joint issue you present with, there may be a couple of ways to diagnose your pain and thereby find you a lasting solution.
Firstly, you will have a telephone consultation with one of our highly trained patient advisors. This patient advisor will ask you a series of pre-assessment questions to better understand your personal needs.
You will then be invited for a consultation with one of our leading experts. To better gain an understanding of the problem, the Consultant may suggest you receive an x-ray or an MRI.
What is an x-ray?
A diagnostic test that can help identify what issues are causing the pain.
What is an MRI?
A diagnostic test using a magnetic field and radio waves for a detailed image of both joint and soft tissue.
What is an ultrasound?
Typically a handheld device that provides an on the spot image of the soft tissue.
Once we’ve received the results of your diagnostic tests, our team will be able to advise you on next best steps to get you pain free.
