 	<li>Neck pain (cervicalgia) &amp; Low back pain or lumbago are common musculoskeletal disorder affecting many people at some point in their lives.</li>
 	<li>Neck pain may arise due to muscular tightness in both the neck and upper back, or pinching of the nerves emanating from the cervical vertebrae.</li>
 	<li>Low Back Pain does not have a definitive cause. It is believed to stem from benign musculoskeletal problems such as muscle or soft tissues sprain or strains.</li>
 	<li>If severe neck pain or low back pain occurs following an injury (motor vehicle accident, fall) a trained professional such as a paramedic or orthopaedician, should immobilize the patient to avoid the risk of further injury and possible paralysis.</li>
