頸部扭傷或拉傷是頸部的一塊或多塊肌肉、韌帶或肌腱的損傷。
Neck Strains and Sprains
頸部扭傷和拉傷
A neck strain or sprain occurs when one or more muscles, ligaments, or tendons in the neck are injured.
頸部扭傷或拉傷是頸部的一塊或多塊肌肉、韌帶或肌腱的損傷。
The cervical spine has a wide range of motion in all directions. This motion is supported by a complex structure of muscles, ligaments, and tendons.
頸椎在各個方向上有很大范圍的活動度，這是由肌肉、韌帶、肌腱等復(fù)雜的結(jié)構(gòu)來支持的。
The large neck muscles, such as the sternocleidomastoid and the trapezius, enable the gross motor movements in the neck. The large, triangle-shaped trapezius connects the back of the neck and the shoulders.
象胸鎖乳突肌、斜方肌等頸部大的肌肉，是頸椎活動的主要動力。巨大的三角形的斜方肌，連接著頸后部和肩部。
A neck strain affects cervical muscles and tendons—bands of fibrous tissue that connect the muscles to bones.
頸部扭傷累及頸部肌肉和肌腱。肌腱是連接肌肉和骨的纖維組織束。
Sprains affect the ligaments—bands of fibrous tissue that connect the vertebral bones to each other and provide stability to joints.
拉傷累及韌帶，它是將頸椎相互連接起來的纖維組織束，維系關(guān)節(jié)的穩(wěn)定。
Neck strains and sprains occur when these soft tissues are stretched beyond their normal limits or torn, causing pain, tenderness, and difficulty moving the neck.
當(dāng)頸部的這樣軟組織所受拉力超過它們正常的極限或發(fā)生撕裂，就發(fā)生頸部扭傷和拉傷，會引起疼痛，壓痛和頸部活動困難。
Neck pain may radiate into the shoulder and over the shoulder blade and upper back when the trapezius muscle is strained.
頸部疼痛會放射到肩部，當(dāng)斜方肌扭傷，可引起肩胛及背部的疼痛。
Neck strains and sprains can occur either due to a sudden injury, such as a car accident that forces the head suddenly forward and then backward in a whiplash motion.
急性的外傷，比如車禍?zhǔn)诡^部突然向前然后向后如同揮鞭樣的活動，也會引起頸部扭傷或拉傷。
These injuries can also develop over time due to poor posture.
因?yàn)殚L時間姿勢不良，也會逐漸產(chǎn)生這些損傷。
Muscle strain in the neck can also be accompanied by inflammation around the injured tissue, and neck muscle spasms as the body tries to stabilize the injury. These muscles spasms can be quite painful.
當(dāng)受傷組織周圍有炎癥時，人體試圖穩(wěn)定受傷部位，使頸部肌肉痙攣，也會伴隨出現(xiàn)頸部肌肉扭傷或拉傷。這些肌肉的痙攣會引起劇烈疼痛。
Many cases of neck strain or sprain will resolve after a few days, but flare-ups or aching pain may continue for weeks or months after the initial injury.
很多頸部扭傷或拉傷在一些日子后會恢復(fù)，但突發(fā)加重或酸痛可能持續(xù)到初始損傷后數(shù)周或數(shù)月后。
