Neck pain is commonly seen in small animal practice. Pain may arise from the nervous system itself or its surrounding structures. Identification of the origin of pain determines the diagnostic tests required in order to reach a diagnosis and decide on the right therapy. This article discusses differential diagnoses, management and treatment of some common cervical and neck conditions in small animals.
