Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Researchers will compare between study group and control group to see if there isimpact of the changes in cranio-vertebral angle on the cervicogenic dizziness and the risk of falling in the patients with cervical radiculopathy .

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
The Study group (GI)
The Study group (GI) will include twenty five patients with chronic cervical radiculopathy with forward head posture (FHP) (CVA=less than 49° ).
No interventions assigned to this group
The Control group (GII)
The Control group (GII) will include twenty five patients with chronic cervical radiculopathy without forward head posture (FHP)( CVA = more than 49).
No interventions assigned to this group
Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
1. Fifty patients with chronic cervical radiculopathy(degenerative type) from both sex will participate in the study (twenty five with forward head posture (FHP) , and twenty five without forward head posture (FHP) ).
2. The duration of the disease (cervical radiculopathy)is more than 6 months.
3. The age ranged from 35 to 50 years old.
4. Mild to moderate neck pain on visual analogue scale .
5. Pain and dizziness lasting for 3-6 months.
6. subjective dizziness experienced in conjunction with cervical pain, movement, stiffness, or particular postures.
Exclusion Criteria
1. Cervical myelopathy.
2. Cervical myelo-radiculopathy.
3. Acute cervical radiculopathy.
4. Diabetic neuropathy.
5. Previous cervical surgery.
6. Cervical trauma.
7. Deformities in the cervical spine .
8. Rheumatoid arthritis.
9. Any tumours and infection involving the cervical spine .
10. Patients with a history of neuromuscular disorders.
11. precise diagnosis of either central dizziness (due to cerebrovascular disorders related to the vertebrobasilar circulation, migraine, multiple sclerosis, tumours of the posterior fossa, neurodegenerative disorders, some drugs, and psychiatric disorders) or peripheral dizziness( due to a problem in the part of the inner ear that controls balance. These areas are called the vestibular labyrinth, or semicircular canals. The problem may also involve the vestibular nerve. This is the nerve between the inner ear and the brain stem).
