TREATMENT WITH PHYSICAL THERAPY AND MODALITIES IN CASES WITH HERNIATED DISC

Abstract

In this study we have treated the issue of Herniated Disc (HD) that is part of the group of degenerative spinal cord diseases that are quite common. HD is a muscusceletal disorder responsible for sciatica and occurs due to rupture of the annulus fibrosis, following the displacement of the central mass of the intervertebral disc into the dorsal disc spaces. The age of the effected population is average about 30 to 50 years, with percentage of male and female in average but that depends on many factors such as working environment, weight, physical activity, smoking, etc. Treatment of this pathology we did with physical therapy modalities. Patient that were treated achieved excellent results from a severe condition such as HD, managed to be back at work without functional obstacles. This study presents the connection between patient and physical therapist in achieving desirable results.Material and methods: an anonymous inquiry was conducted after examination of 100 patients in our clinics in Ferizaj and Pristina. Patients that came were with diagnoses and some of them we have diagnosed too, with typical HD. Also the patients received second questionnaire to verify their after treatment improvement.Results and discussion: Results achieved in this study were remarkable. From 100 patients that we had in study, 90 had max results, 6 had average results and 4 of them left treatment. It was proven that electrotherapy, sonotherapy, Tecartherapy, exerciser, osteopathy, light analgesics and home education such as exercise and right posture are crucial for achieving results.
