Arthritis
By far the most common form of neck arthritis is neck osteoarthritis (also called cervical arthritis or cervical spondylosis), but neck arthritis can be caused by a bunch of arthritic conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, and more. Typically, this can be generalized by just calling it "neck pain". As with all arthritic conditions, if left untreated, it gets worse and worse over time.
So what is osteoarthritis? Simply put, it is when the cartilage in the joint wears away. This can be caused by an aging, injury, or both. There are many components of this condition that are vital to understand, so contacting your physician may be a good idea, as well as finding your local, in this case Roseville chiropractor.
