Correlation between pain and cervical proprioception in individuals with chronic non-specific neck pain
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background:
This study aims to determine the correlation between pain and cervical proprioception in individuals with chronic non-specific neck pain.
Methodology:
Prior to the assessment, in this study, demographic data including the participant's name, age, gender, dominance, address, and contact information were collected.
Results:
In the analysed data we found that the mean age distribution of the participants is23.68+/-4.56, out of the total participants the females were 59% and males were 41%, 99% of the participants are right-hand dominant and 1% are left-hand dominant, the mean differences in Range of motion for flexion is 9.16, extension is 6.78, lateral flexion 2.12 and rotation is 5.3, and the correlation of pain on activity with Flexion is 0.107.
Conclusion:
The study concludes that there is a correlation between pain and cervical proprioception in individuals with chronic non-specific neck pain. In this study, cervical proprioception was affected in flexion to a marked extent and mildly affected in extension and lateral flexion in individuals with chronic non-specific neck pain.
