- Zygapophyseal joint pain
- C0/C1 and C1/C2 lateral joints
- Muscle sprain
- Segmental dysfunction
- Vascular disorders: dissection of vertebral artery, internal carotid artery, or aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta.
- Fracture
- Systemic causes such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis.
- DISH and ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament
