Case series demonstrates improved pain and function in lumbar radiculopathy after kinetic control exercises, indicating their potential benefit.
Background: Lumbar radiculopathy pain is a type of neuropathic pain caused by pathological changes in the sensory lumbar nerve roots, which causes radiating pain throughout the lumbar spine. [1] Aim: The aim of the study was to find out effectiveness of kinetic control exercises on pain, disability, range of motion (ROM), and strength in patients with lumbar radiculopathy. Methodology: It was a case series conducted at tertiary care hospital among four patients of age 25–45 years having lumbar radiculopathy. Patients received Kinetic Control Exercises for 3 days/week for 4 weeks. Pain, ROM of lumbar spine, strength of trunk muscles, and back disability were assessed pre intervention and postintervention. Results: A significant difference was found in pretest and post-test for pain, disability, flexion ROM of lumbar spine, and strength of trunk muscles except all other ROM. When comparison done after 4 weeks, the percentage of improvement in postintervention group was much higher than pre intervention group. Conclusion: Kinetic control exercises showed significant improvement in reducing pain, disability, improving lumbar flexion ROM and strength of trunk muscles.
