The study will be a randomized clinical trial to determine the effects of core stability versus swiss ball exercises on pain, range of motion and function in patients with chronic neck pain. A sample of 42 patients having neck pain since last 3 months will be taken from physical therapy department of "Bahawalpur medical & dental hospital" and will be divided into two groups each with 21 patients. Patient of any gender(male or female) with no history of neck surgery or any systemic disease will be considered. Group A will receive core stability exercises along with conventional physical therapy while group B will receive swiss ball exercises along with the conventional physical therapy protocol. The conventional physical therapy protocol will include a hot pack, and cervical stretches. The session will be around 30-45 minutes for each patient with three sessions per week on alternate days. A total of four-week treatment regime will be given to the patients and an assessment of patient's pain, range of motion, and function with NPRS (numeric pain rating scale), goniometry, and NDI (neck disability index) will be done at the baseline and after 4 weeks of treatment, data will be analyzed by using SPSS version 21, after the completion of treatment at four weeks.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | NPRS | Changes from base Line Numeric Pain rating scale is a scale for pain starting from 0-10. where 0 indicate no pain and 10 indicate severe pain. | 4th week | |
Primary | NDI | The NDI has become a standard instrument for measuring self-rated disability due to neck pain. Each of the 10 items scores from 0 to 5. The maximum score is 50 | 4th week | |
Primary | Goniometric measurement of neck ROM | A goniometer is an instrument which measures the available range of motion at a joint. | 4th Week |
