Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. To compare the strength of neck flexors and extensors of neck pain patients with age and gender matched normals 2. To compare the endurance of neck flexors and extensors of neck pain patients with age and gender matched normalsTimepoint: 30 minutes for each group for testing the strength and endurance of both neck flexors and extensors. It will be a single session study. Study will be stopped on completion of data for 60 participants—

Secondary
