Nowadays musculoskeletal disorders are the most prevalent harmful factors in work environments. Non­­-ergonomic work stations and unsuitable designs of work environments confront workers with musculoskeletal disorders creating risk factors. It seems that the prevalence of these disorders in carpet weavers is more than other jobs. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of strength training on neck-shoulder pain of female carpet weavers. This study was semi-experimental with a pretest and posttest design. The population consisted of 30-40-year-old female carpet weavers. 20 subjects whose intensity of pain on numerical rating scale was equal or more than 3 were randomly assigned to two control and experimental groups. After 8 weeks of strength training, the intensity of present‚ usual and worst pain was measured again by a 10-point scale. The comparison of pretest and posttest in the experimental group showed a significant difference in the intensity of present‚ usual and worst pain. This reduction was reported as %53‚ %50 and %58 for worst‚ usual and present pain respectively. But in control group, no significant differences were observed between pretest and posttest. According to these findings, special strength training reduced worst, usual and present pain.

The aim of this study was to investigate the extent of neck pain in bachelor, master and PhD students with an emphasis on their gender. In this cross-sectional study which was descriptive (causal-comparative), 511 female and 516 male students were selected from six universities in Tehran. The mean neck pain in subjects was measured by Visual Assessment Scale (VAS) during the past year. One-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc tests were used for the analysis of the variable at a significance level of 0.05. The results of this study showed a significant difference in the extent of neck pain between male and female bachelor, master, and PhD students (P≤0.05), with both male and female PhD students having significantly more pain than bachelor and master students (P≤0.05). Thus, prevention and treatment of neck pain is more important for the PhD students to decrease its prevalence and related problems.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of six weeks strength training on nonspecific neck-shoulder pain in female carpet weavers. Subjects were 20 women with a mean age 29/24±/2 years، weight 74±1/6 kg and 7/2±/3 years work history whose their initial work neck-shoulder pain intensity were three and more. They randomly divided into experimental (N=10) and control (N=10) groups. Investigation was semi empirical type with pretest and posttest design and neck-shoulder pain demonstration intensity of two groups of subjects were assessed by subjective pain rating scale (0-9). Experimental work which was in the form of performance of special strength training for shoulders and neck، was carried out for six weeks، three sessions per week، each session lasting 45 minutes. Statistical operations accomplished using descriptive statics and dependent and independent t test by SPSS software (version 21). In the end of the program، dependent t-test results indicated a 3/8±. /2 reduction of pain (in Numerical Rating Scale) in experimental group (p. Based on the results of the independent t-test، the experimental group pain at the end of experimental، was 3/2±. /65 degree (in Numerical Rating Scale) lower than the control group (p. According to these results،18 sessions of specific neck and shoulder strength training significantly reduced neck-shoulder pain in female carpet wavers.
