简要总结
Coccydynia is common and prevalent among the females and several types of exercises and electrotherapy are advised. Pain can reduced significantly with both short wave diathermy and muscles stretches. There is limited evidence on indirect method like thoracic mobilization techniques to improve coccydynia. This study will determine the effects of thoracic mobilization techniques on coccydynia.
详细描述
Coccydynia, refers to pain in the coccyx region. it can be caused by various factor including trauma or injury (such as falls or child birth ), repetitive strain, prolong sitting on hard surface, or even idiopathic reasons. Treatment options for Coccydynia may include conservative measures, such as pain medication, using cushion or donut-shaped pillows to relieve pressure, applying heat or cold packs, and avoiding activities that's exacerbate the pain. Physical therapy including exercises such as stretching, Muscle Energy Technique (MET) can also be beneficial in some cases. Thoracic manual therapy, which involves hands-on techniques applied to the thoracic spine, can indeed be beneficial for improving spine mobility. While it may not directly target the coccyx itself, improving overall spinal mobility can have indirect effects on coccyx pain and dysfunction.

结局指标
主要结局
Numeric Pain Rating Scale
时间窗: 8th Week
Changes from the baseline Numeric Pain Rating Scale will be used to assess pain. • The Numeric Pain Rating Scale is an eleven-point measure of pain: the patient rates pain from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain). The NPRS has shown good responsiveness in shoulder pain.
Modified OSWESTRY Low Back pain Index
时间窗: 8th Week
Changes from the baseline ODI is a disease specific disability measure is used to establish a level of disability stage on a patient activity status and monitor change over the time. The ODI is made up of 10 questions. Each question is scored from (o-5) m
