Efficacy of Proprioceptive Training and Conventional Training in Reducing Pain and Improving Functional Activity for people with Lateral Ligament Injury

Abstract

Background : Most athletes who participate in sports experience lateral ligament injury. Lateral ligament damage
is one of the most frequent ankle ailments.The study was developed to determine the efficacy of proprioceptive
training and conventional training in reducing pain and improving functional activity with lateral ligament injury.
Purpose: To compare the efficacy of proprioceptive training and conventional training in reducing pain and
improving functional activity with lateral ligament injury.
Methods : This study is an experimental study.A total of 40 subjects participated in the study based on inclusion
and exclusion criteria were taken from prism health care. The subjects willing to participate were divided
into two separate groups as Group A (20 subjects) received proprioceptive training and Group B (20 subject)
received conventional training. All were assessed with Numerical pain rating scale and Foot and ankle ability
measures. This exercise was given for 2 weeks , a period lasting for 45 to 60 minutes 10 reps, 3sets. Pre and post
test values are calculated and tabulated. The entire process was conducted from November 2022 to March 2023.
Result : According to statistical analysis Proprioceptive training is effective in reducing pain with patients with
lateral ligaments injury with p value of <0.0001.
Conclusion : This study finally concluded that proprioceptive training has a high impact in reducing pain with
patients with lateral ligaments injury.
