OBJECTIVES: Neck pain is a prevalent occupational health issue among surgeons, particularly those performing long-duration or posture-intensive procedures. This study investigates the potential association between the practice of rhinoplasty and the prevalence of neck pain among otorhinolaryngologists.

METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 241 otorhinolaryngologists who attended the 9th ENT Meeting and 28th International Rhinocamp Congress. The questionnaire, designed by the researchers, included questions on demographics, engagement in rhinoplasty procedures, years of surgical experience, presence and severity of cervical region discomfort, related hospitalizations or surgeries, and MRI-confirmed neck pathologies (eg, disc bulging, protrusion). Responses were analyzed to determine associations between rhinoplasty practice and neck pain.

RESULTS: Of the participants, 40.6% (n=98) were female and 59.4% (n=143) were male. Overall, 62.6% (n=151) reported experiencing neck pain. The prevalence of neck pain was higher among surgeons performing rhinoplasty (71.0%, n=86) compared with those who did not (54.1%, n=65), with a statistically significant association (χ²=4.215; P =0.037). Moreover, a significant correlation was found between years of performing rhinoplasty and the frequency of neck pain ( P =0.001).

CONCLUSIONS: Neck pain is common among otorhinolaryngologists, especially those regularly performing rhinoplasty. Interventions such as ergonomic training, physical exercise, and proper surgical posture may reduce the risk of cervical musculoskeletal disorders and improve occupational well-being.

LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV.
