Publisher: | Bayrakol Medical Publisher | Abstract: | Aim: Neck pain is a common health problem that most people experience throughout their lifetime. The aim of this study was to examine the factors associated with chronic neck pain intensity increasing in the young population over the last years. Material and Methods: Two hundred and ninety-two young adults aged 18-30 years were included in the study. The severity of pain, disability level, general and spine-related quality of life, sleep quality and smartphone usage status of the participants were questioned. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to determine the factors affecting neck pain intensity. Results: Smartphone usage in non-neutral position (Odds Ratio (OR): 2.116), decreased spine-related (OR: 0.980) and general quality of life (OR: 1.003), in-creased neck disability (OR: 1.079) are important factors that increase the severity of neck pain. Discussion: Our results indicate the non-neutral position of the neck during a phone call, decreased level of spine-related quality of life and general quality of life, increased disability of the neck are major risk factors for moderate-severe neck pain. Informing the young population about these risk factors and providing the necessary training will contribute to reducing the intensity of neck pain. | URI: | https://doi.org/10.4328/ACAM.20443 https://hdl.handle.net/11499/47073 |
