cervical instability in neck pain patients.
According to a report published in the “China Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology”, the adolescents with neck pain who spend more time using a cell phone found to have a higher occurrence rate of cervical instability on C₃-C₄, C₄-C₅, C₅-C₆ segments than the healthy teenagers.
This report aimed to assess the association between cervical instability and living habit of adolescent patients with neck pain. A total of 17 healthy and 59 adolescents with neck pain were selected and categorized into two groups; control and neck pain group, respectively. The living habits of all participants were recorded. The association between cervical instability and living habit was determined using the hyperextension, hyperflexion, and lateral radiography.
