Muscle strain causes most back and neck pain, which can occur from an automobile accident, in addition to other ways. For example, if you ever experience whiplash, the sudden force to your back and neck can tear or bruise your soft tissues and nerves, causing pain to your back and neck. Poor posture can also trigger pain in these areas.
You can also suffer pain from lifting objects that are too heavy or twisting your body, sports injuries, or other trauma. The pain usually dissipates as you rest to give your muscles time to heal.
