Tech neck is a Modern age term coined to describe repeated stress injury and pain in the neck resulting from excessive watching or texting on hand-held devices over a sustained period of time.

TECH NECK SYNDROME (Text neck)
The human head weighs about 11 pounds. However, when it is angled forwards & downwards, the effective weight applied to your spine increases. This puts an enormous amount of stress on the neck, shortening and tightening the muscles and compressing the nerves to cause neurological dysfunction, intense pain and spasms.
