简要总结
EFFECT OF FLEXIBLE FLAT FOOT CORRECTION EXERCISE ON PAIN AND FUNCTIONS IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN: AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY
1.1 Significance for the study:
In the patient with chronic non specific low back pain there is effect of podiatrical deviations such as flat feet, ankle instability, and hallux valgus deformity. As in flexible flat foot there is decrease in medial longitudinal arch (MLA) which leads to many biomechanical alterations which would in turn increase strain over back and abdominal muscles giving rise to pain persistence for prolong period which can further lead to disability. Many studies had showed correlation and prevalence of low back pain with flat foot. So, this study will help in introducing protocol for correction of flexible foot via flat foot correction exercises and it may help in reducing pain and improve functions in patients having Chronic Non-Specific Low Back Pain.
1.2****Objectives of the present study
To evaluate the effect of conventional therapy exercises on pain and functions in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain.
To evaluate the effect of flexible flat foot correction exercises along with conventional therapy exercises on pain and functions in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain.
To compare effect of flexible flat foot correction exercises along with conventional therapy exercise v/s conventional exercises on pain and functions in patients with chronic non-specific low back pain.
1.3 Procedure: -
The patient will be selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Further consent form will be provided and complete details about study will be explained and patient assessment sheet containing demographic data will be filled. After selection of patients, they will be randomly allocated to two groups by using lottery method. Here:
· Group A-Conventional Therapy for Non-Specific Low Back Pain
· Group B Conventional Therapy for Non-Specific Low Back Pain + Flexible Flat foot correction exercises.
Baseline assessment for Non-Specific Low Back Pain (NSLBP) will be done by Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) and functional evaluation will be done by Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and flexible flat foot will be assessed by Navicular Drop Test (NDT).
After 4 weeksof intervention again assessment for Non-Specific Low Back Pain (NSLBP) by NPRS and functional evaluation will be done by ODI.
