Article Synopsis
- Lumbar disk herniation (LDH) often causes chronic low back pain (CLBP), and this study aimed to assess the effectiveness of ultrasound (US) and short wave diathermy (SWD) treatments in physical therapy for patients experiencing CLBP due to LDH.
- A randomized control trial included three treatment groups: two groups received either US or SWD in addition to standard therapies, while a control group only received standard therapies.
- Results showed significant improvements in pain and disability scores across all groups, with deeper heating treatments (US and SWD) contributing to continued benefits in physical and emotional well-being over time.
