Even though corticosteroid therapy and facial expression exercises were found to be effective, still 30% of participants with bell's palsy achieve incomplete recovery from the paralysis. The study objective was evaluate effectiveness low-level laser (LLLT) combined progressive in moderate severe palsy. A total 120 idiopathic equally allocated three groups. LLLT, electrical stimulation corticosteroid/antiviral will performed respectively group I, II Group III as a common intervention. First...

Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is one of the common musculoskeletal conditions shoulder which may develop sensory-motor and autonomic dysfunctions at various level neuromuscular system. The dysfunction caused by MPS were primarily treated with physical therapy pharmacological agents in order to achieve painfree movements. However, recent years intramuscular electrical stimulation (IMES) conventional electrode placement was used researchers maximise therapeutic values. But, this study an...

Acute facet joint lock induced wry neck (AFJL-WN) is common among adult population and it primarily managed by medications physiotherapy. However, the immediate recovery from pain movements restriction caused AFJL-WN not documented in favour of existing interventions.To evaluate effects paraspinal dry needling (PSDN) on acute movement deficit patients with AFJL-WN.A total 21 were treated single session PSDN for 12-15 minutes. The Visual Analog Scale (0-100mm) Hand Held Goniometer used to...

Background: One of the most prevalent neurodevelopmental disorder seen in children is Cerebral palsy and it associated with lifelong disability. Impaired trunk control effects performances daily life such as sitting, reaching walking. It evidenced from studies that pelvic asymmetry common CP. The PNF patterns pelvis not only exercises motion stability, but also facilitates stability. Objective: To investigate effectiveness techniques on spastic diplegia. Method/Design: 36 diplegic...

Myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) precipitate the shoulder pain severity and disability in patients with adhesive capsulitis (SAC). This study aims to compare effectiveness of intramuscular electrical stimulation (IMES) combined therapeutic exercises versus dry needling (DN) improving clinical outcomes SAC.In this randomized controlled trial, IMES (n = 45) DN (43) groups had received respectively IMES, twice weekly for three consecutive weeks. Both 1520 minutes, five days a week during...

Abstract Purpose: To investigate the influence of additional eccentric strengthening to hip abductor and lateral rotator musculature on pain function in sedentary people with Patellofemoral syndrome (PFPS). Methods: 30 patients between 18 40 years age, a diagnosis PFPS, all subjects received treatment for period 4weeks were randomly assigned Control group (CG) Experimental (EG). The (n = 15) performed conventional knee-stretching program, whereas, same exercises as those control ,in addition...

Introduction Lateral epicondylalgia (LE) is commonly presented with myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) among adults. Dry needling (DN) used less frequently as a first-line treatment in LE points, and the short long-term effectiveness of DN these populations were not studied. Hence, this study compared conventional physiotherapy population points. Methods For four weeks, experimental group (<i>n</i> = 19) received weekly one session, control therapeutic ultrasound combined deep...

'Rapid balance reaction' or 'perturbation' training is an emerging paradigm in elderly back pain rehabilitation due to its connection postural stability.

A 49 year old male patient was referred to physiotherapy department with the complaints of non-throbbing, non-lightening headache over posterior aspect head past nine years. The medical history and examinations findings had shown evidence for bilateral cervicogenic myofascial triggers in trapezius muscle. He treated 15 minutes (per session) sub-occipital, paraspinal dry needling five weeks. After weeks, he relieved from pain, neck disability movement restriction cervical spine. Even after 24...

Abstract: 19 year old college student was referred to physical therapy department with signs and symptoms of seventh cervical nerve root radicupathic pain. Physical examination spine had shown that localised pain over left C6-7 junction radiating down till the dorsal aspect ring finger. Spurling upper limb tension tests positive a sign for irritation. She treated intermittent traction, stretching neck muscles, mobilization thoracic spine, trigger point massage period two week. But, were not...

A 42 years old female presented with the complaints of pain and stiffness right elbow limited extension, since 8 months, due to fracture head radius. She was receiving conventional physical therapy treatment for relief functional improvement eight months. The limitation in Elbow extension caused difficulty carrying household works. Later patient treated dry needling myofascial trigger points brachioradiallis, common flexor, extensor muscles upper trapezius shoulder, tendons were added...

These are case series with six patients who presented Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome related to severe hypertension due various causes managed by neurology team based in DGH & Tertiary neurosciences centre. This shows the diversity of its presentation and quick recognisation management would help reversing damage but there situation were controlling becomes difficult nature aetiology as a result this could lead non damages. also called PRES is clinico radiological...

<h3>Introduction</h3> Brachial Neuritis also called as neuralgic amyotrophy is an idiopathic condition which involves the brachial plexus. It usually affects young to middle aged subjects. Its classical presentation painful progressive asymmetrical upper limb weakness with sensory abnormalities. Herein we present a rare form of neuritis started after endurance exercise complicated by type 2 respiratory failure due diaphragmatic weakness. <h3>Case Presentation</h3> This 55-year-old man...

Context: Stroke is one of the common upper motor neurological disorders with overall worldwide prevalence 3% . Majority post-stroke individuals develop abnormal pelvic muscles function and tilt which can affect trunk lower limb functions. Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation less commonly used to treat acute stroke population. Thus, we conducted this case study evaluate clinical usefulness selective PNF on pattern in two subjects hemiparesis. Both cases were treated routine techniques...
