The symptoms of cervical ligament strain are mainly local pain, swelling and limited movement. If the injury is serious, it may cause fracture or even dislocation of cervical spine. Neck ligament strains are often caused by severe trauma, such as falls and traffic accidents. After ligament strains, the continuity and integrity of local tissues are destroyed, resulting in inflammatory cytokines such as prostaglandin factor and tumor necrosis factor, which stimulate surrounding nerves and cause local pain. Ligament injury is accompanied by vascular damage, which can cause local bleeding and local swelling. Due to local pain and swelling, neck movement restriction is very obvious. Local stability is greatly weakened or even lost after ligament injury, so it may cause dislocation and fracture of vertebral body.
