About this trial

The primary objective of this study is to translate the Nordic Musculoskeletal (E-NMQ) Questionnaire Modified Version into Urdu following international guidelines. Presently, there exists no validated tool to comprehensively measure symptoms such as pain, stiffness and weakness in Urdu-speaking patients in Pakistan. Specifically, the widely used E-NMQ, having these three vital categories, has yet to be translated and validated for Urdu-speaking individuals with musculoskeletal disease (MSD).
