Shoulder and Neck Pain Prevention

Timely follow-up visits to your doctor plus following his or her recommendations will enable you to recover faster. The preventions from shoulder and neck pains are:
  • To prevent injuries, examine your home for potential hazards and correct them to reduce the chance of accidental injury.
  • Proper exercise of the shoulders and neck can reduce the risk of injury.
  • When performing hazardous tasks, have someone present to reduce the likelihood of injury. For example, when climbing a ladder, have someone hold the base of the ladder to keep it from sliding to either side.
  • Know your limitations. Do not perform activities that you do not have the training, skills, tools, or strength to accomplish.
  • Wear seat belts and use other safety equipment to reduce injuries.
