The Neck Disability Index is best conducted in the presence of a medical professional. The patient should be asked questions related to their neck pain and its effects on their daily life. The patient then scores the questions using a numerical scale, and the total score indicates neck pain severity.

Commonly asked questions
The Neck Disability Index measures how neck pain affects the patient's daily life, including their ability to perform activities of daily living, range of motion, and pain intensity. It also measures psychological factors such as mood, fatigue, and stress levels.
The Neck Disability Index results are interpreted in comparison to the patient's baseline score. A higher score indicates an increase in neck pain severity, and a lower score indicates a decrease in neck pain severity. The results can be used to create more effective treatment plans for the patient.
