<span style="font-family:Verdana;">Background: Neck pain is a real public health problem. It</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">s</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> treatment use</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">s</span><span style="font-family:""><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> different techniques, such as functional rehabilitation, whose results are not widely popularized, from developing countries in Black Africa. Objective: To assess the result of rehabilitation of chronic common neck pain (CCNP) at the CNHU-HKM in Cotonou. Methods: Cross-sectional, retrospective, descriptive and analytical study. It was carried out from May to September 2020, based on the files of former patients followed in functional rehabilitation department at CNHU-HKM in Cotonou, from 2015 to 2019, for CCNP. The result of rehabilitation was assessed based on the progress, between the start and the end of the rehabilitation sessions, of pain intensity, mobility of </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">the cervical spine, muscle strength and functional capacity of the patient. A</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">nova and chi-square tests were used for the analysis of factors associated with the result of rehabilitation. Results: The sample consisted to 73 patients. They were predominantly female (58.90%), with a mean age of 53.60 ± 14.08 years. Th</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">e neck pain, at least of moderate intensity (97.26%), was p</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">resent since 12.54 ± 8.54 months, on average. Patients have done 10 to 20 functional rehabilitation sessions, the result of which was satisfactory in 67.12%. This result was mainly associated with patient’s age, sports practice and the seniority of pain progression. Discussion-Conclusion: Rehabilitation results in the management of CCNP are interesting. They prove the need to sensitize patients and prescribers on the importance of early treatment of CCNP.</span></span>
