A doctor has provided 1 answer
Slipped disc: Most people who have a slipped disc and low back pain have it in the low back (the lumbar spine). You have it in your neck where there are 8 cervical vertebrae. You might have neck pain, upper back or shoulder pain, headache or scalp pain if so the respective nerves are compressed.
