Loss and Acceptance ” Part Two

It is very difficult to deal with the reality of acceptance whilst easy to talk about it. Pain sufferers find it very challenging that they cannot any longer manage an important ability they feel they should perform with ease. People with a chronic pain disability show no outward signs of their restrictions and others treat them as normal, expecting them to be able to do things normally too. Coping with the loss of usual functioning is difficult as can be the attitudes and beliefs of other people towards pain conditions. However, the conflict which exists cannot usefully be continued and sufferers benefit from working on acceptance of the situation.

The Cervical Spine ” Part Three

As mobility in the neck declines the facet joint capsules, the fibrous bags which surround the joints, are vulnerable to overstretching trauma. An unplanned movement such as turning without thinking about it can pull against the limits of the tightened capsules and cause trauma to the capsular fibres. The pain causes movement inhibition and as the capsules heal up with scar tissue they can tighten further and thereby tolerate further stretching even less. This process can spread to several areas of the neck, causing significant unnoticed restriction in range of movement until one day you suddenly realise that you cant turn as far as you need to.

The Human Neck ” Part Three

The reduction in neck mobility exposes the capsules, fibrous bags around the joints, of the facet joints to traumatic stretching events. Turning the neck suddenly without conscious thought can push the joints to the limits of their movements, injuring the fibres of the capsular ligamentous tissues. This produces joint pain and scarring with increased capsular tightness as the healing process proceeds, making the joints tighter and less willing again to tolerate stresses. As the tight joints can occur in several parts of the neck this can cause a limitation of joint motion which doesn't become apparent until one day you find you can't turn your neck as you expect to.
