The spinal cord, heart, lungs, and some abdominal organs also can cause neck and shoulder pain.[\/vc_column_text][vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=VB4fRmAh7eE&#8221;][vc_column_text]Here are some examples:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Broken collarbone: Falling on your outstretched arm can cause your collarbone to break.<\/li>\n<li>Bursitis: A bursa is a sac over the joints to provide a cushion to the joints and muscles. These bursa can become swollen and painful after injuries.<\/li>\n<li>Heart attacks: Although the problem is the heart, heart attacks can cause shoulder or neck pain, known as \u201creferred\u201d pain.<\/li>\n<li>Broken shoulder blade: An injury to the shoulder blade usually is associated with relatively forceful trauma.<\/li>\n<li>Rotator cuff injuries: The rotator cuff is a group of muscles at the shoulder. These muscles can be injured playing sports with a lot of throwing or after repetitive use over a long time.<\/li>\n<li>Shoulder or A-C separation: The collarbone and shoulder blade are connected by a ligament. With trauma to the shoulder, this ligament can be stretched or torn.<\/li>\n<li>Whiplash injury: Injury to the ligamentous and muscular structures of the neck and shoulder can be caused by sudden acceleration or deceleration, as in a car accident.<\/li>\n<li>Tendonitis: The tendons connect the muscles to the bones. With strain, the tendons can become swollen and cause pain.<\/li>\n<li>Gallbladder disease: This can cause a pain referred to the right shoulder.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Contact a San Jose Shoulder and Neck Pain Relief Chiropractor today at 408.295.5559 or <a href=\"\/contact-us\">EMAIL US NOW<\/a><\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Your neck and shoulders contain muscles, bones, nerves, arteries, and veins, as well as many ligaments and other supporting structures.
