Evaluation and comparison of trunk stabilization and lower limb abductor muscles exercises impacts on thickness changes of the selected global and local lumbar and lower limb muscles and its association with the pain intensity and disability in women with chronic low back pa
First study consisted of a methodological study is to evaluate the reliability of the information collected by the examiner performed on a sample of 20 cases.
In the second part : changes in the thickness of the gluteus medius, quadratus Lumbarm, transves abdominis, multifidus muscles in 30 patients with chronic low back pain and 30 healthy women by the ultrasonography will be evaluated.
In Part III study : women with chronic low back pain were randomly divided into two groups: the first group (control) received conventional therapy physiotherapy to reduce pain) TENS therapy(30 min) device with a frequency 100-80 Hz and short pulse time 50 ms and heating surface (plus trunk stabilization exercises, group II) test (routine physiotherapy treatment) similar to the first group (plus abductor exercises will receive lower limbs . after 8weeks( 3 times a week) will be evaluated by ultrasonography.
