The winter months may be painful for those who suffer from back and neck discomfort. Cold weather can promote vasoconstriction, which is the formation of a blood vessel wall that narrows the flow of blood to certain parts of the body. As a result, circulation to the extremities decreases, causing more pain. Call Montesano Spine & Sport if your chronic neck or back discomfort has worsened as a result of the winter chill:
