The mere mention of a neck injury causes most of us to unconsciously touch our neck.  Sure, neck injuries are certainly associated with issues like headaches, migraines, carpal tunnel syndrome and other health issues.  But some researchers now believe there is a causal link between neck injury and disease conditions such as MS and Parkinson's.

Researchers in Glasgow, Scotland found that MS and Parkinson's symptoms were irritated or even brought on by "cervical (neck) cord trauma."  Meanwhile a 5 year study of 81 MS and Parkinson's patients found that 78 of them had a previous neck injury.  This is incredible information which underscores the necessity of quick and accurate treatment for neck injuries and proper diagnosis of spinal and brain trauma.

If you have suffered any kind of neck injury, it is extremely important to obtain an accurate diagnosis and proper treatment immediately.
