Из-за ЭТОГО болит шея, нельзя повернуть голову и это НЕ ОСТЕОХОНДРОЗ

Pain in the neck and near the edge of the scapula, as well as limited head rotation, can result from problems with the levator scapulae muscle. Watch the video to the end to learn the causes of these symptoms, exercises for quickly relieving discomfort at home, and helpful tips for preventing recurrence.

The levator scapulae muscle, along with the upper trapezius, is affected by trigger points more often than other muscles in the shoulder girdle. In addition to referred pain, trigger points in the levator scapulae muscle significantly contribute to limited mobility of the cervical spine. Pain when turning the head toward the affected muscle can be so intense that it forces a person looking back to turn not their head, but their entire body. Active head rotation can be used as a diagnostic test for levator scapulae muscle involvement. Normally, when turning the head, the chin should be level with the anterior surface of the shoulder joint. If the muscle is affected on one side, limited head rotation, accompanied by pain at the end of the movement, will be observed on one side. If the levator scapulae muscle is affected on both sides, head rotation will also be limited in both directions. Trigger points also limit the full range of motion of the scapula during deep breathing and significantly contribute to shortened breathing, which keeps the scapula relatively immobile. The levator scapulae muscle, affected by trigger points and in prolonged spasm, transfers excessive load to its attachment sites at the transverse processes of the first four cervical vertebrae. This can lead to poor nutrition in this area and deformation of the cartilaginous structures, leading to the development of protrusions and herniations in the cervical spine and increased symptoms of cervical radiculopathy. Trigger points are most often activated and persist for a long time as a result of maintaining the shoulder in an elevated position while the muscle itself is completely shortened, especially if it is fatigued or exposed to hypothermia. #soreneck #big #neck
