Medics warn younger generation is likely to be more prone to tension headaches, muscle spasms and bone spurs. Smartphone users are increasingly turning to Botox jabs to cure “tech neck” – pain and inflammation from time hunched over devices.

Some sufferers are having repeat injections every six to nine months. A full course of treatment can cost up to £600 ($1280)..
