So, you know how sometimes when you bump into something or move your body in a way that it doesn't like, it hurts and you might cry? Well, sometimes that can happen in your neck too.
Your neck is the part of your body that connects your head to your shoulders. It has bones, muscles, and nerves that help you move your head and neck around. Sometimes, if you move your neck in a way that it doesn't like, the muscles can get strained or even injured. That can make your neck hurt a lot and you might cry because it hurts so much.
When you cry because of neck pain, people sometimes call it "crying the neck." That's just a fancy way of saying that your neck hurts so much that you're crying. But don't worry, with time and rest, your neck will start to feel better!
