👉 Neck fluid, also known as preauricular or auriculovestibular fluid, is a clear, colorless, and slightly viscous secretion produced by the synovial membranes lining the joints of the neck, particularly around the ears. This fluid plays a crucial role in lubricating and cushioning the joints, reducing friction between the cartilage surfaces during movement. It also helps to absorb shocks and protect the underlying tissues from wear and tear, ensuring smooth and pain-free motion. Additionally, neck fluid serves as a medium for the distribution of nutrients and waste products within the joint capsule, maintaining the health and integrity of the synovial fluid itself.
