Summary

the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of diclofenac phonophoresis versus high power pain threshold ultrasound in patients with mechanical non-specific neck pain

Conditions

  • Neck Pain

Interventions

OTHER

diclofenac phonophoresis

the patients will be in comfortable position and apply diclofenac phonophoresis on upper trapezius and suboccipital muscle by ultrasound device. diclofenac gel was applied circularly with a thickness of 2-3 mm. Then ultrasound with was applied with 1 MHz frequency and 1.5 Wt/cm2 power over the trigger points on the trapezius and suboccipital muscle, for 10 min.

OTHER

high power pain threshold ultrasound

the patients will be in comfortable position and The frequency was set to 1 MHz, and the intensity will be increased from 0.5 to 2 until the patient reported an unpleasant sensation. The probe was held there for 4 s; then, the intensity was reduced by 50%, and the probe will be moved over and around the trigger point. This process is done several times for three minutes

OTHER

conventional therapy

the patient will receive an active range of motion exercise, stretching and strengthening of all cervical muscles
