简要总结
The rising prevalence of FHP in young adults is largely attributed to sedentary lifestyles and extensive use of digital devices. This study is necessary because FHP can lead to functional limitations, neck pain, and muscle imbalances. It is important to explore its relationship with DNF endurance, which plays a crucial role in cervical spine stability. By understanding this relationship, the study can help fill gaps in the existing literature, guide effective rehabilitation programs, and promote preventive measures to reduce the incidence of musculoskeletal disorders associated with poor posture.
