EFFECT OF SCIATIC NERVE MOBILIZATION ON LOWER LIMB FUNCTION AMONG SUBJECTS WITH DIABETIC NEUROPATHY

The most frequent consequence that diabetes people experience is diabetic neuropathy. The form of diabetic neuropathy that occurs most frequently is distal symmetrical polyneuropathy, involving sensory, motor and autonomic fibers. Sensory disturbance is most common and may be seen as hypersensitivity to touch, burning sensation, tingling and pricking pain sensation. Techniques for nerve mobility can be utilized to lessen discomfort and enhance sensibility in the area that the nerve feeds. The goal of this study is to evaluate the impact of sciatic nerve mobilization on the performance of the lower limbs and the degree of peripheral neuropathy in diabetic neuropathy patients. A Quasi-experimental design was carried out in Saveetha physiotherapy OPD, Saveetha medical college and hospital, Chennai involving 30 patients recruited using convenient sampling procedure. The data were tabulated and analyzed using Graph pad prism. This study focuses on the Influence of sciatic nerve mobilization on lower limb mobilization among subjects with diabetic neuropathy.
