&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Almost everyone has probably experienced having a stiff neck. The muscle that connects the neck&amp;rsquo;s cervical spine and shoulders are strained and cause soreness that becomes especially painful when turning your head to the side.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Oftentimes, it is strained due to an awkward sleeping position. However, there can be other uncommon causes, too.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Keep on reading to know more about the different causes of stiff neck and how EU Health &amp;amp; Wellness can help.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Stiff Neck Causes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;A stiff neck can be caused by several everyday activities such as:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Wrong sleeping position&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #008080;&quot;&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;color: #008080;&quot; href=&quot;https://www.eu-health.org/pain-clinic/sport-injury&quot;&gt;Sports injuries&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Repeated and abrupt head movement (i.e. swimming)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Slouching&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Poor posture in prolonged position (i.e. working on your desk, playing on the phone, etc.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #008080;&quot;&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;color: #008080;&quot; href=&quot;https://www.eu-health.org/mental-wellbeing/stress&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Stress&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;As mentioned, there are other uncommon reasons that can strain your neck. These can be infections, tumors, or even cervical spine disorders like:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Cervical herniated disc&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Cervical osteoarthritis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Cervical degenerative disc disease&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Usually, you can recover from a stiff neck after a few days. However, if it is a result of a more serious condition as stated above, it is best to consult a doctor about it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
