Fiddler's neck is a dermatosis of violinists and violists. It characteristically presents as focal lichenification and pigmentation on the left side of the neck. Edema may also occur in the same area and lead to cosmetic concern or fear of malignancy. The edema apparently results from pressure on the patient's neck by the base of the violin or viola and is worsened by holding the instrument in a drooping position.
小提琴手颈是小提琴家和中提琴家的一种皮肤病。其特征表现为颈部左侧的局限性苔藓化和色素沉着。同一区域也可能出现水肿，导致美观问题或对恶性肿瘤的恐惧。这种水肿显然是由于小提琴或中提琴琴身底部对患者颈部的压迫所致，并且将乐器持于下垂位置时会加重。
