Abstract:
Background - Chronic hemicranial pain that is referred to the brain from either the neck's bony structures or its soft tissues is known as cervicogenic headache syndrome. The characteristics of CGH that set it apart from other headaches are side locking pain, pain that is made worse by pressure on the neck muscles, and head movement. Neck issues at work are increasingly frequently observed in heavy computer users. Cervical pain can be caused by a variety of factors, but sitting for prolonged periods of time with no downtime, being inactive, having poor postural control, and experiencing increased physical, mental, and psychological stress at work are the most common among office employees. Further interventional research to address CGH in computer users will build on the findings of this prevalence investigation. Methodology - Ethical approval had been obtained. The subjects chosen ranged in age from 18 to 40 years old and worked for at least 32 to 42 hours per week. An online questionnaire form was created and distributed among computer users based on the International Headache Society's ICHD-3 and Biondi Checklist criteria for cervicogenic headache. The pain intensity was measured using a Visual Analog Scale. A statistical analysis was performed, and the results were tabulated. Result - 110 computer users between the ages of 18 and 40 were included in this observational study, with 57.3 percent men and 42.7 percent women. 34.85% of users have CGH, according to the International Headache Society's ICHD-3 and Biondi Checklist for CGH criteria. Conclusion - According to ICHD-3 and Biondi checklist Criteria, the study's findings show that 34.85 percent of computer users get cervicogenic headaches.
