Modern Çağın Ağrısı Metin Boyun Sendromu: Geleneksel Derleme

Öz

Metin Boyun Sendromu (TNS), 21. yüzyılın sendromu olarak adlandırılan, başta çocuklar ve ergenler olmak üzere dünya çapında milyonlarca kişiyi etkileme potansiyeline sahip bir sağlık sorunudur. TNS, uzun süreli akıllı cihaz kullanımı ve boyun fleksiyonuna maruz kalmanın bir sonucu olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı, TNS'nin mekanizmasını, değerlendirmesini ve tedavisinde kullanılan fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon yaklaşımlarını incelemektir. TNS'nin değerlendirilmesi ve tedavisi ile ilgili literatürde sınırlı sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır. TNS' nin değerlendirilmesi, hastanın öyküsü, ağrı seviyesi, hareket açıklığı ve kas sertliği gibi bir dizi parametrenin değerlendirilmesini gerektirir. TNS tedavisi için fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon teknikleri, farmakolojik ajanlar, dinlenme ve hasta eğitimi dahil olmak üzere çeşitli konservatif tedavi yaklaşımları kullanılmaktadır. Çalışmaların sonuçları, boyun stabilizasyonu, düşük yoğunluklu endurans egzersizi, servikal hareket açıklığı egzersizleri, postür odaklı egzersizler ve germe teknikleri dahil olmak üzere fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon yaklaşımlarının TNS semptomlarını azaltmada etkili olduğunu göstermektedir. TNS'nin optimal tedavisini belirlemek için daha fazla çalışmaya ihtiyaç vardır.

Pain of Modern Age Text Neck Syndrome: A Traditional Review

Öz

Text Neck Syndrome (TNS), referred to as the syndrome of the 21st century, is a health problem which has the potential to affect millions globally, particularly children and adolescents. TNS occurs as a result of exposure to neck flexion with prolonged use of smart devices. This review aims to examine the mechanism, assessment and physiotherapy, and rehabilitation approaches used in the treatment of TNS. There are a limited number of studies in the literature regarding the evaluation and treatment of TNS. The evaluation of TNS requires the assessment of several parameters, including the patient's history, pain level, range of motion, and muscle stiffness. A variety of conservative treatment approaches are used for TNS treatment, including physiotherapy, rehabilitation techniques, pharmacological intervention, rest, and patient education. The findings of the studies indicate that physiotherapy and rehabilitation approaches, including neck stabilization, low-load endurance, cervical range of motion, posture-oriented exercises, and stretching techniques, are effective in reducing TNS symptoms. Further studies are needed to establish the optimal treatment of TNS.
