Questions related to Neck Pain
I have patients with neck pain. I am testing them then giving them a 4-weeks rehab program then testing them. I want to measure the responsiveness of an outcome measure, for example, the range of motion in the cervical spine pre and post-rehabilitation program.
What's the best statistical test to measure the responsiveness (change over time) of my outcome measure?

for example, i was searching for "chronic neck pain and resistance Training" and so many publications appeared for that Topic, but i can't find the exact number of articles, which appeared here. How can I find out, how many articles appeared for my search? (Don't want to Count all of them haha)

Cervical spondilysis, neck pain, back pain in rough bikers, long sitting computer professionals get frequent pain and cervical spondilitis. The long neck covering band is uneasy, tough, and uncomfortable and it gives bad look over the collar. We started making a collar band which is narrow soft, good looking and. relieving pain too. We wish to market this cheap product. Do you need this. ?
We have a set of routinely collected data of about 10.000 patients with musculoskeletal pain (neck pain, thoracic pain and low back pain). We have collected the data in a primary care physiotherapy practice based on standardized registration forms. We don’t have found any comparable publication. We are not sure what is the best way to analyse this total dataset or in subgroups. Who has any experience in processing routinely collected data? Who has published a paper as result of analysis of routinely collected data in primary care physiotherapy practice?
Hi friends
Is there any provocative test to assess the pain in cervical facet joints
Congrats on the interesting project, but before migrane- neck pain!
I have not managed to find much about aerobic exercise training in neck pain. Have you found some solid evidence to support aerobic training in neck pain? will be happy to share!
If not- let's do one!
sincerely,

hi every one from researchers and practitioners i'm a PHD candidate and i want ask you a question>> i would like to ask if any one know the prevalence of neck pain among Egyptian people ?
As a PT, I work with patients with Post-concussion syndrome. (I have noticed multiple patients with this diagnosis have excessive chest, upper trapezius and accessory muscle use while breathing, which may have to do with the high incidence of neck pain and headaches in this population, but want to see if anyone else has noticed this). I also wonder if this is due to the hits to the head which may interfere with C3,4,5; which may involve inhibiting diaphragm at some time during their injury. I do not believe there is research on this yet.
Some of the Yoga experts suggest neck rotation in the problem of cervical spondylitis, whereas some suggests not to perform this practice. Can we get the right answer?
Does anyone have an idea or that overuse of the neck can cause cerebral infarction resulted from thrombus in the internal carotid artery?
A 61-year-old male was brought to the emergency department with complaints of left side paralysis and speech disturbance. The symptoms supposedly appeared while he was sleeping. Apparently, the patient could not move his left hand and leg. He was alert and his blood pressure was 120/60 mmHg. He has no history of hypertension, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia. He does not consume alcohol or smoke. According to his wife, he complained of right side neck pain in the preceding day after he played Kendo _ Japanese martial art. There were no apparent bruises or wounds in his right neck.
USG revealed the thrombus at the trunk of right internal carotid artery. CT revealed no bleeding but the high intensity lesion in the right middle cerebral artery, indicating clots in the vessel. MRI showed the high intensity lesion in the right basal ganglia. MRA showed the deficit of the blood flow in the right ICA. Then, he was diagnosed as acute stroke resulting from thrombosis in the ICA. Thinking of the interval of the onset, he was not considered as a candidate of interventional radiology followed by iv t-PA treatment. Then, conservative treatment by edaravone and antithrombin agent were initiated.
In this case, I wonder if there are some relationships between sports and cerebral infarction. I am interested in the involvement of external force or overuse of neck as the cause of his illness.
There are more studies explaining about chronic pain and inability of patient to repeat the Joint Re position test in both cervical and Lumbar region. I would like to know how can we measure it precisely in clinical set up. Any reliable scale to grade the error?
effect of pectoralis minor resting length on scapular kinematics in subjects with shoulder pain
This is a question for people doing demographics / symptom assessment research: My team is using several instruments to quantify patient symptoms (Neck Pain Disability Index, McGill Short Form Pain, DASS 21). Right now we have patients fill them out on paper forms. My question is: if we convert these forms to be collected on a computer (e.g. with check boxes), can we compare our results to those collected by other researchers using the same forms collected on paper? I am not sure if it is ok to assume the responses would be equivalent.
At the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery of Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia in Moscow from 1980 we apply intraosseous blockades for the treatment of different neurological pain syndromes such as: low back pain and neck pain, failed back surgery syndrome, facial pain and headache, vertebrogenic cardialgia, neuropathic pain, pain and spasticity in multiple sclerosis, complex regional pain syndrome, pelvic pain, phantom pain, pain and spasticity after stroke, etc. In all these diseases intraosseous blockades showed high therapeutic efficiancy and without complications. Has someone already applied intraosseous blockades for the treatment of pain in the United States or Europe?
