Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Visual analogical scale
Time Frame: Change from baseline to 4 weeks and 6 months of follow up.
Pain was measured using a visual analogical scale (VAS). The VAS consists of a 10-cm line, with the left extremity representing (absence of pain) and the right extremity indicating (the worse pain devisable). Participants were asked to indicate in the scale their current level of pain being higher values related with more intense pain
Secondary Outcomes
- Oswestry Disability Index(Change from baseline to 4 weeks and 6 months of follow up.)
- Range of Motion(Change from baseline to 4 weeks and 6 months of follow up.)
