Brief Answer:
Yes chronic anxiety and stress may cause neck pain

Detailed Answer:
Hello thanks for choosing HCM for your health related queries

Anxiety is usually characterised by rapid heart rate, palpitations, sweating, fear of unknown thing, chocking sensation in throat, tremors, epigastric upset etc symptoms. Some times a lot of individuals show somatic symptoms instead of classical symptoms of anxiety.

These somatic symptoms may present with symptoms like chronic fatigue, chronic headache or heaviness in head, neck pain etc. So chronic anxiety and stress may result in neck pain, but before making final diagnosis as cause of anxiety other causes of neck pain should be ruled out.

Your X-rays are normal so most likely any orthopaedic cause has been ruled out. If there is no neurological cause has been found then we can fix anxiety and stress as cause for your symptoms.

Thanks, please ask again if you have more questions.

Brief Answer:
Yes we can rule out common neurological causes as CT and MRI are normal

Detailed Answer:
Hello

If MRI and CT scan are normal then any serious neurological concern can be ruled out easily. But still a proper physical examination is needed to rule out the cause completely. But as all imaging investigations came normal so the possibility of neurological cause is very rare.

Thanks
