Abstract
Background: Neck pain is a ubiquitous complaint leading to work place absenteeism, disabilities and disturbed sleep wake cycle in many young working and studying people. In ongoing covid scenario, since there is increased use of laptops and mobile phones facilitating work from home for employee and virtual learning for students, there has been increased prevalence of non-specific neck pain among the people due to prolonged fixed flexion posture. Neck pain has become the condition of major consideration since 45% of UG students had experienced neck pain in last 12 months.
Aims and Objectives: to evaluate combined and individual effects of Therapeutic Ultrasound and Myofascial Release Technique on Quality of Life of students suffering from neck pain owing to virtual learning.
Methods: The participant (n=33) will be recruited in study experiencing non-specific neck pain and meeting the inclusion criteria. Three groups will be formed such that the patient in Group A will receive treated with therapeutic ultrasound. Group B will be receiving treatment using Myofascial Release Technique and Group C will be treated using combined use of both Therapeutic Ultrasound and Myofascial release Technique. The protocol will cover 1 week of treatment. Regular assessment at 0,3rd and 7th day of week will be carried out. We will evaluate using Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Neck Disability Index (NDI), and Range of motion of neck and Manual Muscle testing of cervical musculature.
Results: The result of the study will provide affirmation on using combination therapy of Therapeutic Ultrasound and Myofascial Release Technique in people having nonspecific neck pain.
