Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Pain Severity
Time Frame: nine weeks
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) is a pain intensity measurement scale with validity and reliability. The patient will be told that they can evaluate their pain from 0 to 10 on a 10 cm horizontal line. It will be explained that if there is no pain, 0 (the leftmost point), the most severe pain will be 10 (the rightmost point). According to these explanations, patients will be asked to mark their pain intensity on a 10 cm chart. On the 10 cm chart, the distance between the point marked by the patient and the leftmost 0 will be measured by the ruler and the value will be recorded.
Secondary Outcomes
- Functional Level Status(nine weeks)
- Quality of Life Level(nine weeks)
