简要总结
Lumbosacral radiculopathy (LR) is among most common disorder caused due to irritation or compression of nerve pathway leading to symptoms of pain, numbness and tingling sensations along the nerve root. Lumbosacral radiculopathy consists at any lumbar region including L1-S1. Occurrence rate of Lumbosacral radiculopathy is 3-5% distributed equally in men and women affecting more men than women. It commonly occurs in late 40s in men and late 50s-60s in females. Men are more prone to develop lumbosacral radiculopathy due to mechanical disturbance during routine work.
详细描述
- William flexion exercises: Exercises for strengthening of gluteal and abdominal muscles which help to reduce pressure on the nerve root by promoting flexion at lumber spine such as knee to chest, double knee to chest, bridging(Gluets bridge), and straight leg raise (SLR).
- Mckenzie extension exercises: The exercises used to create space between under lying structures of lumber spine which help centralization of pain and can be performed in prone lying such as prone press ups, prone on elbow, and head lift in prone
A randomized controlled trial.
