A member asked:
Doctors can you tell me why does the back of my neck pop and occasionally the snapping causes pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spine Joints: Facet joints are places on the spinal bones where two bones actually meet and articulate, therefore a facet joint injection is into that place where they meet. Many times arthritis or inflammation can arise here and cause pain.
