INTRODUCTION: To indentify the anatomic site, nature, pattern & severity of neck and shoulder pain among housewives, find out incidence of pain, find out recurrence of neck and shoulder pain , to determine which activities are more prone to aggravate the neck and shoulder pain. To survey awareness of neck and shoulder pain among housewives at Jhansi (U.P.) To identify nature and pattern of neck and shoulder pain among OBJECTIVE OF STUDY: housewives by Random Sampling done in the Jhansi City, UP. Housewives completed a METHODOLOGY: questionnaire about her neck and shoulder pain related questions, movement and pain related questions, ADL problems related question. Questionnaire form, Neck & Shoulder Assessment In OUTCOME MEASURES: CONCLUSION: conclusion, the survey shows that out of 51 women, around 50% housewives suffer from neck and shoulder pain with either a moderate score of 10-20% or a median score of 40-50%.

Neck And Shoulder Pain

Abstract Background Shoulder stiffness is a common health issue in Japan. During the COVID-19 pandemic, people were forced to stay home which possibly escalated the development of shoulder stiffness. We aimed to assess associations of lifestyle changes and newly developed neck and shoulder pain (NSP) during the pandemic. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted, analyzing the data from the Japan COVID-19 and Society Internet Survey (JACSIS), an internet survey conducted from August to September 2020. Data included sociodemographic, lifestyle and health measures related to NSP during the pandemic. Multivariable logistic regression models were fitted to calculate adjusted odds ratio (AOR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) for newly developed NSP with adjustment for lifestyle, physiological and psychosocial changes. Results After exclusion of participants with existing pain, 25,482 participants (12,673 male, 12,809 female) aged 15-79 years were included in the analysis. Of these, 4.1% reported newly developed NSP. Weight gain and long sedentary time were strongly associated with the NSP (AOR (95%CI): 2.4 (2.0-2.8) and 1.81 (1.4-2.3)). Stratified analyses of 1,751 students and 4,211 teleworkers showed significant associations (AOR (95%CI): 2.1 (1.4-2.8) and 2.5 (1.9-3.2)) compared to non-workers and non-teleworkers, respectively. Conclusions Students and teleworkers became prone to NSP during the pandemic. However, factors which were associated to pain did not differ during the pandemic compared with the previous studies. Key messages Preventive measures for NSP should be taken in students and teleworkers.

Arm Elevation

PurposeTo use a compositional data analysis approach and objective exposure assessments to study the association between the duration of arm elevation and the course of neck and shoulder pain (NSP) during a 2-year follow-up in physically demanding occupations.MethodsConstruction (n=59) and healthcare (n=59) employees wore accelerometers on the dominant upper-arm during a full working day at baseline. Objective assessments using accelerometers addresses biases found in previous studies that estimate duration of arm elevation with self-reports. At baseline and every 6 months for two years, participants reported on NSP (scale 0–3). Duration of arm elevation within predefined ranges (<30°; 30–60°; ≥60) formed the parts of the composition. Compositional data analysis is a new statistical analysis method within occupational health and it is the correct way of analysing data with a compositional nature. The associations between the relative importance of the duration within the levels of arm elevation and the course of NSP during the 2-year follow-up were estimated with compositional linear mixed models, adjusted for confounders.ResultsIn non-adjusted analyses, only duration arm elevation <30° was associated with NSP at baseline (β = 0.37; p=0.015). Duration arm elevation <30° had a tendency to be associated with an improvement in NSP over the 2-year follow-up (<30°*time (β=-0.07; p=0.089)). Neither duration 30–60° nor ≥60 were associated with the course of NSP during follow-up. After adjusting for confounders, none of the durations of arm elevation were associated with the course of NSP over the 2-year period (<30° and NSP (β = 0.20; p=0.126); <30°*time (β=-0.06; p=0.097)).ConclusionAmong construction and healthcare personnel, duration of working in awkward arm elevation postures was not associated with the course of NSP over a 2-year period. Arm elevation alone, without considering force exertion, may not be sufficient to influence the course of NSP.
