Evidence based case study report on a forward head posture subject with cervical disc lesion and abdominal muscle weakness treated with physiotherapy

Repeated movements, static postures were known to cause postural problems cervical and lumbar disc lesions. This case study subject employed a fitter, where handling of heavy objects with more repetitive manual tasks were involved as part of his occupation. The objective of this case study report was to focus on to clinically evaluate, analyse and treat neck muscle imbalance and posture but also to strength the co existing abdominal muscle weakness. With an improved motor power of neck, abdominal muscles, reduction of VAS by 60 % and 42% in the subjective scoring of neck disability index. Hence an evaluation and treatment of spine should be focused instead of localized symptomatic treatment is the core of this study for an enhancing maximal patient benefit.
