Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of injections of Botox (botulinum toxin
type A) for the treatment of chronic neck pain. Botox is an approved treatment for patients
with cervical dystonia. Cervical dystonia is a chronic condition characterized by involuntary
movements of the neck that are often painful. In this study, the response from Botox in
patients with neck pain not associated with cervical dystonia will be compared to the pain
response in patients with cervical dystonia.
