Abstract:
Background- Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS)is a self-limiting condition that occurs after vigorous and unaccustomed resistance training or any other form of muscular overexertion. DOMS appeal approx. after 12 to 24 hours after the cessation of exercise and peaks at 48 to 72 hours and subsides naturally after 3 to 4 days. To study the effect of Conventional Physiotherapy and Conventional Physiotherapy Exercises on DOMS in calf muscles in Amateur Trekkers. DOMS limits the functional range of motion in muscles. DOMS is the most common a trekker gets after trekking, which also hampers some of their functional activities. So, the need for this study is to relieve the temporary termination of pain in people with trekking. To check whether the application of Kinesiotaping and Cryotherapy with Stretching is effective in reducing the effect of DOMS and regaining functional range. To check which recovery method is the best for DOMS so that trekkers won’t face any pain which will hamper their functional activities. Methodology:69 participants participated in the study. Participants were divided into 2 groups by simple random sampling i.e., Group A and Group B. Participants in Group A were treated with Conventional Physiotherapy, and participants in Group B were treated with K-taping and Conventional Physiotherapy. Pre and Post pain readings were recorded using the NPRS scale and similarly pre and post Range motion readings were recorded using Goniometer. Statistical analysis was done and results were tabulated. Results: For Pain, after comparing the p values it proved that both the Groups showed similar results for immediate, after 24 hrs Rx and also after 48 hrs. Rx. Similarly, for Range Motion after comparing the p values it proved that both the Groups showed similar results for immediate, after 24 hrs Rx and also for after 48 hrs Rx Conclusion: From this study, we can conclude that both groups i.e., Group A (Conventional Physiotherapy) And Group B (K-taping and Conventional Physiotherapy) are equally efficient for treating DOMS and shows the same effect on both NPRS and Ankle Range of Motion.
