简要总结
Symphysis pubic dysfunction is a well-known clinical problem encountered by many females during pregnancy, yet it has not received much attention in the research literature. As pubic symphysis dysfunction at times presents with severe pain while performing day to day activities and also affects significantly on quality of life in antenatal period, but its effective management remains difficult to determine as no standardized treatment protocols are available. This study may add to the growing body of knowledge in the management of SPD, that if the core stability exercise alone or with the pregnancy support belts yield comparable outcomes and if one technique is superior to the other, which should be the alternative choice of therapy.
