Abstract

Background: Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease, occurring primarily in older person, characterized erosion of articular cartilage, hypertrophy of the bone at the margins. Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disorder among adults 45 to 80 years of age or older, symptomatic disease occurs in approximately 12.1% population. Method: A total number of 40 participants of age between 60 to 80 years were divided into 2 groups as group A and group B, in which each group consist of 20 participants. The group A received single leg mini-squat exercise with hot pack and IFT and group B received straight leg raise exercise with hot pack and IFT for 15 days (20 times twice daily).the number of exercises was increased by five every two days so that by end of the program (15 day), the participants was performed 55 single leg MSE twice a day of group A and 55 SLRE twice a day of group B. Result: The participants in the two groups showed improvement after the treatment but there was significantly more decrease in pain, increase muscle strength and physical function among participants in single leg mini squat exercise group when compared to SLRE.
