PREVALENCE OF FORWARD HEAD POSTURE IN FEMALE COLLEGE GOING STUDENTS OF GANDHINAGAR

Abstract

ABSTRACT : Background: Forward head posture is one of the commonest postural malalignments found in today’s youth. This postural malalignment is one of the major causes of musculoskeletal conditions in the body. If these postural changes are detected early, the musculoskeletal conditions can be treated as well as further progression can be prevented. Hence the purpose of the study was to find out the prevalence of FHP amongst college going students. Materials and methods: Total 200 participants were included in the study. Participants were evaluated for FHP using ‘ON PROTRACTOR’ mobile application via craniovertebral and craniohorizontal angle. Result: Eighty percent of participants had forward head posture. Conclusion: Prevalence of FHP is high amongst female college going students in Gandhinagar city. Keywords: Forward head posture, Prevalence, Female college going students
