Summary

the aim of this study is to compare the effect of low intensity pulsed ultrasound therapy and the effect of low level LASER in the treatment of post cesarean anterior cutaneous branches of iliohypogastric neurotmesis.

Conditions

  • Neurotmesis

Interventions

DEVICE

low intensity pulsed ultrasound plus static abdominal and pelvic floor exercises.

Ultrasonic irradiation was employed with parameters of current use in clinical practice, including lower potency (0.16 W/cm2), which is more adequate for stimulation of nerve regeneration, according to results obtained in investigations in which the irradiation was applied at the lesion site 32, 33.

DEVICE

low level LASER plus static abdominal and pelvic floor exercises.

Application of laser irradiation (Ga-As laser) in the site of the anastomosis inhibits the degeneration process, accelerate remyelination, and nerve function recovery 27, 28

OTHER

static abdominal and pelvic floor exercises only.

static abdominal and pelvic floor exercises., 3 times/week for 4 weeks.
