Nakkesmerter, uspesifikke: Diagnostikk
Dette er en diagnose som legen stiller på grunnlag av sykehistorien din samt en undersøkelse av nakken. Legen vil ha fokus på å skille uspesifikk nakkesmerter fra andre årsaker som prolaps i nakken, skulderlidelser og annen sykdom. Symptomene er som regel typiske med stivhet og anspenthet i nakken. Muskelrelaterte smerter kan være lokale, men kan også gi cervikal hodepine med utstråling fra nakke til panne-/tinningsregion kan føles oftest som trykkende nakkesmerter og som et stramt belte rundt pannen. Smerten blir bedre når man legger seg ned og hviler.
Ved undersøkelse er ofte musklene i nakken stramme, det kan kjennes små muskelknuter, og pasientene opplever smerter og ømhet når legen undersøker muskler og senefester.
Bildediagnostikk er som regel ikke nødvendig.
