Post-operative Rehabilitation in Klatskin Tumor: A Rare Case Report.

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), commonly referred to as Klatskin tumor (KT), is a rare cancer that develops from the epithelium of the intra- or extrahepatic bile duct. This case outlines the impact of physiotherapy rehabilitation in a post-operative case of a KT in a 58-year-old male who presented with complaints of abdominal pain, nausea, constipation, and difficulty in urinating and reportedly exhibited generalized weakness, weight loss, and dyspnea. Following investigations such as computed tomography (CT) scan, the patient was diagnosed with a KT for which he underwent hepaticojejunostomy and was kept under observation, following which supervised physiotherapy intervention (PI) commenced from post-operative day (POD) 3.

Physiotherapy Interventions for Preventing Spinal Curve Progression in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: A Systematic Review.

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis(AIS) is an abnormal curvature of the spine that appears in late childhood or adolescence. The aim of this systematic review was to present and synthesize the most relevant therapeutic advice and evidence on the efficacy of physiotherapy exercises for preventing the growth of spinal curvature caused by adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. "Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis," "exercise," "Cobb angle," and "physiotherapy" were the sole keywords used for the published research.

Pragmatic Effect of Lower Limb McKenzie in Grade One Osteoarthritis: A Novel Case Report.

Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a usual disorder depicted as discomfort and loss of functional performance, including decreased proprioceptive acuity. Symptoms of this condition include stiffness, pain, swelling, joint disproportion, functional incompetency, and muscle atrophy, which may reduce the well-being of the patient. This report highlights the case of a 41-year-old female patient who complained of right knee pain, which was persisting for a month, and was treated with the McKenzie Technique (MT) along with electrotherapy modalities.

The Effect of Static Cupping Therapy in Non-specific Low Back Pain for Primary Dysmenorrhea.

Dysmenorrhea is often referred to as painful menstruation with cramping sensations in the lower abdomen, resulting in discomfort. This pain commonly radiates to both the thighs and lumbosacral regions. A 23-year-old female presented with a complaint of severe abdominal pain during menses, accompanied by low back pain (LBP) that typically started at the onset of menstrual flow and lasted for the first 24-48 hours for which no analgesics were taken by the patient.

A Pragmatic Comparison Between Aerobic Exercise and Suryanamaskar in Stress Management in Medical Professionals: A Quasi-experimental Study.

Background Stress is an episodic process in an individual's life that depends upon the circumstances that elicit this process, later jeopardizing an individual's mental balance and leading to depression and anxiety. Yoga is a traditional component of physical activity that contains three main domains, namely, maintaining the correct posture (asanas), control over one's breath (pranayama) and meditation with complete concentration (dhyana), which are proven to be effective in enhancing the psychological, physical, and spiritual wellbeing of an individual along with mindfulness. The purpose of the present study was to compare aerobic exercise (AE) and Suryanamaskar (SN) in terms of the best intervention in lowering the level of stress in medical professionals (MPs).

Impact of Dorn Therapy on a Patient With a Prolapsed Intervertebral Disc: A Case Report.

A prolapsed intervertebral disc (PIVD) refers to herniation of the nucleus pulposus out of the intervertebral space. Mechanical nerve compression brought on by a protruding nucleus pulposus and an increase in chemokines in the affected area causes the underlying pain, which is typically treated conventionally with surgery or medication. Nonetheless, these management strategies may not always be effective and may impact a person's quality of life.

Impact of Scapular Repositioning Using a Scapular Belt for Axioscapular Muscle Imbalance in Patients With a Non-specific Neck Pain: A Case Report.

A common cervical spine condition that frequently interferes with a patient's daily activities is chronic neck pain. The axioscapular muscle imbalance that results from increased middle trapezius activity in patients with non-specific chronic neck pain affects cervical spine stability and contributes to pain.
