Filter by:Mechanical neck pain is a prevalent problem in community and it can lead to disability. In current community, increasing of life stress on individual may lead to sleep disorders, mental and physical fatigue. Objectives of study is to investigate the effect of sleep quality, mental and physical fatigue on mechanical neck pain. Methods and Materials Two hundred thirty individuals were having mechanical neck pain . Neck disability index, chalder fatigue scale and Pittsburg sleep quality index were applied on all individuals participating in the study , NDI was used to determine the pain and functional disability of the participants , PSQI was used to assess the sleep quality, lastly the CFS was used to determine
The neck pain is a public health problem and a common source of disability in the general population. Its exact pathology remains obscure, but the source of symptoms has been asserted to involve mechanical dysfunction of the cervical spine, particularly the zygoapophysial joints. Among the diversity of neck pain, mechanical neck pain is the most common type, with the pain primarily confined in the area on the posterior aspect of the neck that can be exacerbated by neck movements or by sustained neck postures. The usual clinical presentation of this mechanical neck pain is a reduction in mobility of either a single segment or multiple segments of the cervical spine in association with pain. This study will be a randomized control trial and will be conducted at Arif Memorial Teaching Hospital Lahore. The study will be completed within the time duration of six months. Convenience sampling technique will be used to collect data. A sample size of 30 patients(15 in each group) which will fulfill inclusion criteria will be taken in the study. Participants will be divided into two groups. Both Groups will be given conventional physical therapy and postural correction education. Group A will be provide oscillatory mobilizations. The following grades will be use: grades I and II for pain and grades III and IV to increase joint range of motion. This oscillatory mobilization will perform at a rate of 2-3 oscillations per second. and a frequency of 3-4 mobilization of the joint lasting approximately 30 sec each. The rest time between each mobilization will be one minute for 5 days a week for four weeks , while group B will be treat withmckenzie retraction exercises in which foursets of 10-15 repetitions with 1-2 minutes rest between each set for 5 days a week during four weeks. Data will collect by using tools like numeric pain rating scale to measure pain, universal goniometer will be use for range of motion and disability level will be record pre and post treatment by using neck disability index. Then data will analyzed by using SPSS.
