Neck posture and trunk muscle strength in cervical radiculopathy
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how neck posture and a sense of body position in your lower back relate to trunk muscle strength for people with cervical radiculopathy (nerve pain from the neck into one arm). It may help understand better ways to treat your condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your age is between 30 and 55 years.
- You have had neck pain for at least 3 months that shoots into only one arm.
- You have forward head posture (your head sits in front of your shoulders).
- Your weight is in a healthy range (BMI between 18 and 29.9).
- You do not have other spine or nerve conditions (like spinal stenosis, previous spine surgery, or diabetes-related nerve damage).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether core stabilization exercises (exercises to strengthen your trunk and back) can help reduce pain and improve function in people with cervical radiculopathy (a pinched nerve in the neck that causes arm pain and numbness). If you're between 35 and 50, have had neck pain for over six weeks, and your symptoms fit, you may be eligible.
This study tests whether a set of neck exercises can help reduce pain from cervical radiculopathy, a condition where a nerve in the neck is irritated. It focuses on improving the angle of the head relative to the neck (craniovertebral angle) to ease symptoms.
This study looks at how an uneven walking pattern relates to neck pain and muscle strength in people with a pinched nerve in the neck. It will help understand if balance and walking are affected, which might guide better treatment.
This trial tests a specific neck movement retraining program to improve joint awareness and daily function in people with chronic cervical radiculopathy (nerve irritation in the neck). It may help if you have had neck pain that goes into your arm for at least 3 months.
This study tests whether combining neck traction with nerve gliding exercises can improve nerve function and reduce symptoms in people with cervical radiculopathy, a condition where a nerve in the neck is compressed, causing pain, tingling, or weakness in the arm.
This trial tests a type of physical therapy called High Tone Power Therapy for people with long-term neck pain from a herniated disc in the neck. It aims to reduce pain and improve your sense of where your neck is in space (proprioception) without needing surgery.
