Medical students used smartphones in a long duration for social media activities and learning purposes. Smartphone usage in a long duration with static and non ergonomic body position is one of the factors causing non spesific neck pain.

Results : Data from 179 respondents showed that 45.8% experienced mild neck pain, 33.0% experienced moderate neck pain, 5.0% experienced severe neck pain and 16.2% did not experience neck pain. For the duration of smartphone use, 97.8% had a high duration of smartphone use, 2.2% had a moderate duration of smartphone use and none had a low duration of smartphone use. For the position of smartphone use, 1.1% have a very high risk level, 7.8% have a high risk level, 91.1% have a medium risk level and none have a low risk level. The results of the bivariate analysis with the Spearman correlation test showed p value = 0.162 for the relationship between the duration of smartphone use and neck pain, and p = 0.538 for the relationship between the position of smartphone use and neck pain.
