Aim: The aim of the study is to examine pain, sleep quality, neck functionality and awareness in woman with non-specific neck pain (NSNP) with different levels of physical activity.
Materials-Methods: 124 women with NSBP who had neck pain complaints for at least three months, were included in the study. The pain severity of the individuals was evaluated with the Visual Analogue Scale, physical activity levels with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form, functionality with Neck Disability Scale, neck awareness with Fremantle Neck Awareness Questionnaire and sleep quality with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. The individuals were compared after they were grouped according to their physical activity levels as physically inactive, low and adequately physical activity level.
Results: The mean age of the women participating in the study was 40.19±12.22 years. While the group with the least neck pain during rest, activities and throughout the night consisted of women who did adequate physical activity, the group with the most pain was the low physical activity group (p=0.001). While the group with the best neck functionality consisted of women who did adequate physical activity, it was seen that the inactive group had the least functionality (p=0.001). It was found that the group with the worst sleep quality was the physically inactive group (p=0.001).
Conclusions: It was determined that the level of physical activity made a difference in terms of pain severity, sleep quality, functionality, and neck awareness in women with non-specific neck pain. It is suggested to add behavior changes to increase physical activity levels to the rehabilitation programs of patients who consult the clinic with NSNP.
