Your neck constitutes the cervical spine which is made up of vertebrae. The vertebrae are separated by discs. The other structures include muscles, nerves, tendons, and ligaments. In case of cervical degeneration, cervical disc herniation, cervical spine stenosis, muscle strain, arthritis, or trauma, you may feel neck pain in any of the structures. About 15% of U.S. adults have neck pain in the course of 3 months.
