What is actually happening when you get a kink in your neck, and why can they sometimes last for 5 minutes or 5 hours?

Question

You know when you first feel that twinge and you’re scared to move either way for a brief second. Why is that spasm set off sometimes and not other times.

Answer 1

It will help when the neurological connection has been explained. Your brain controls your lymphatic and nervous systems, both control your musculoskeletal system. That is a gigantic connection. You can observe this for yourself with somethings that are maybe not neck cramps, like that sinking feeling that you get when your mom catches you taking a cookie.
