Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: (1) Kinesio Taping plus standard care, or (2) Standard care only. Method of randomization: Simple randomization. Unit of randomization: Individual participants. Stratification: Participants will be stratified based on age (18–70 years) and pain severity level (mild, moderate, or severe). Tool used for randomization: SPSS software. Random sequence generation: Computer-generated randomization sequence. Random allocation process: Allocation will be conducted using a pre-generated random sequence to ensure unbiased assignment. Concealment will be maintained using sealed, opaque, sequentially numbered envelopes. Outcome measures: Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) will be used to assess pain level, and the Oswestry Neck Disability Index (ONDI) will be used to evaluate neck disability. 3 Neck or Cervical spine pain. Intervention 1: Intervention group: Participants will receive Kinesio Taping (K-Tape) applied to the cervical region. The tape will be worn continuously for 24 hours. Pain and functional improvemnets will be assessed at baseline, 24 hours, 3 days and 1 week post application using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) and ONDI scale. Intervention 2: Control group: Participants will recieve standard care (without kinesio taping).Pain and functional improvement will be assessed at baseline, 24 hours, 3 days, and 1 week post application using the Numeric rating scale(NRS) and Oswestry neck disability index. Yes - There is a plan to make this available What will be shared: This dataset includes de-identified individual patient data (IPD) from a randomized controlled trial assessing impact of Kinesio Taping in the pain management of neck.This data consists of: Patient Demographics (age,gender), Baseline assessment (ONDI and NRS scores), Follow-up results at 24 hours, 3 days and 1 week post application periods on excel sheet. When: This data will be made avaliable upon request after the study's completion and publication of findings. To whom: The deidentified data will be avaliable to the researchers, clinicians and academic institutions conducting studies related to neck pain management, or rehabilitation interventions. Access will be granted upon formal requests and approval. Conditions: The data will be shared only for academic and research purposes. Researchers must submit a formal request with ethical approval for data usage. The dataset must not be used for commercial purpose or patient re-identification.Proper citation of the original study is required in any resulting publication. Where to obtain: The dataset is avaliable from (Combined Military Hospital). Interested researchers can request access via email or official institution request.

The tape will be worn continuously for 24 hours. Pain and functional improvemnets will be assessed at baseline, 24 hours, 3 days and 1 week post application using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) and ONDI scale. Control group: Participants will recieve standard care (without kinesio taping).Pain and functional improvement will be assessed at baseline, 24 hours, 3 days, and 1 week post application using the Numeric rating scale(NRS) and Oswestry neck disability index. Pain Reduction by applying Kinesio Taping on cervical pain. Timepoint: Baseline (Pre-Intervention) 24 hours, 3 days and 1 week post application of Kinesio Taping. Method of measurement: Pain reduction will be assessed using Numerical Rating Scale (NRS): An 11-point scale (0-10) where patients rate their pain intensity. Assessments will be conducted at baseline 24 hours, 3 days and 1 week post application of Kinesio tape. Neck functional status in individuals with cervical pain. Timepoint: Baseline (pre-intervention), 24 hours, 3 days and 1 week post application of Kinesio taping. Method of measurement: Functional improvements will be assessed using Oswestry Neck Disability Index (ONDI). The ONDI scale evaluates pain, stiffness, and physical function with higher score indicating worse symptoms. Assessment will be conducted at baseline, 24 hours, 3 days and 1 week post application.
