“WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME?” Why Am I Still Suffering With Neck and Shoulder Pain After 6 Months — Maybe More?
Most people think that when they get neck or shoulder pain, it will eventually ease off and go away on its own.
They think they’ll wake up one morning and, like magic, it will be a thing of the past.
But then 6 months later, you’re still living with nagging pain — often even worse than it was when it first started.
You May Be Thinking:
Why hasn’t it gone away yet?
Why does my neck feel stiff in the morning?
Why does my shoulder hurt when I reach up?
Why does sitting make it worse?
What exercises should I be doing?
Could my neck be causing my shoulder pain?
Am I going to need surgery?
DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?
✓ You’ve tried resting, but the pain keeps coming back.
✓ You’ve been taking painkillers when it gets uncomfortable.
✓ You’ve tried exercises from YouTube, but you’re not sure they’re right for you.
✓ You’ve started avoiding certain activities because of the pain.
✓ You’ve tried heat pads, massage or TENS, but the relief doesn’t last.
✓ You’ve been told it’s just part of getting older.
✓ You’re doing less and less because you’re worried about making the pain worse.
If any of these sound familiar, it doesn’t mean you have to accept neck or shoulder pain as a permanent part of your life.
HAS THIS EVER HAPPENED TO YOU?
Another scenario we see all the time is when people go to the doctor and are told to rest, try some painkillers and see how it goes.
But weeks later, they’re still experiencing pain and end up going back again.
Sometimes they’re given another prescription or told to rest for even longer.
Maybe you’re also confused because you’ve been told different things by different people.
Perhaps you think you have a neck problem — but the actual problem may be coming from your shoulder.
The neck and shoulder can be a confusing area of the body to understand, and this often leads people to put off doing anything about their pain.
Worse, many people eventually accept it as “part of life” — as if it’s normal and as if it has to be that way.
7 REASONS YOUR NECK OR SHOULDER PAIN COULD BE LASTING LONGER THAN IT SHOULD
Here are some of the common situations we hear from people who come to see us:
1. You Thought It Would Go Away On Its Own — But It Didn't
You thought the pain would disappear with time, but it didn't.
2. You Were Told To Rest And Take Painkillers
You went to the doctor and were advised to rest and take painkillers, but the pain returned once the medication wore off.
3. You Were Told That Knee Pain Is Just Part Of Getting Older
A family member or friend told you that everybody gets neck and shoulder pain as they get older, so you simply accepted it.
4. You've Tried Treatment Before — But It Didn't Give You The Results You Wanted
You've sought help from other healthcare professionals or a physiotherapist in the past, but you didn't get the results you were hoping for.
5. You've Tried Heat, TENS Or Massage
You've tried things such as heat pads, TENS or massage, but although they may have provided temporary relief, the pain didn't stay away.
6. You Thought Rest Would Fix It
You thought it would be a good idea to rest because your neck or shoulder was painful, but the problem continues to irritate you every day.
7. You've Tried Exercises From The Internet
You've tried exercises from YouTube or other online sources, but they either felt uncomfortable or didn't seem to make a lasting difference.
If you've tried any or all of these things, you're not alone. And the fact that you've tried different approaches doesn't mean you've failed. It simply means you now have a better understanding of what hasn't worked for you — and that can be the first step towards finding an approach that does.
