Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Core muscle strengthening (group A) Scar tissue release+Core muscle strengthening (Group B) post lumbar fusion patients  Study starts after3 weeks post operatively lumbar fusion patients .9 weeks protocol given for 2 times in a week for 60 minutes. study will complete till 2 year 
Comparator Agent  Scar tissue release for lumbar fusion patients.  Scar tissue release will give twice in a week .for 9 weeks after lumbar fusion surgery.will give release for 30 minutes.Will give scar tissue release around the suture site because after 3 week post op the fibrosis is going to form around the suture which gives pain and reduce lumbar range of motion.

Brief Summary   Degenerative disc and facet joint disease of the lumbar spine is common in the ageing population and is one of the most frequent causes of disability.Lumbar spondylosis may result in mechanical back pain,radicular and claudication
symptoms,reduced mobility and poor quality of life.Surgical interbody fusion of degerative levels is an effective treatment option to stabilize the painful motion segment ,and may provide indirect decompression of neural elements,restore lordosis and correct deformity.The surgical options for interbody fusion of lumbar spine include -posterior lumbar interbody fusion,transformaminal lumbar interbody fusion,minimally Invasive transforaminal interbody fusion,oblique lumbar interbody fusion,lateral lumbar interbody fusion.In gereral traditional posterior approaches are frequently used with acceptable fusion rates and low complication risk.
Despite the significant rise in Lumbar spine fusion(LSF) surgery rates in the last few decades,some 15 to 40% of lumbar fusion patients cannot except significant improvement postoperatively according o functional ability.
postoperative rehabilitation strategy is one of the main factors affecting the outcome.
Need of study-Post surgical pain syndrome is becoming an increasing common challenge for clinicians who deals with spine disorders owing to the expanding indications for spine surgery and aging world population.
A multidisplinary approach is most appropriate for patients who are unlikely to benefit from further formal surgical intervention.with the growth in popularity of scar tissue release over last two decades.It is time to critically examine many of the concept behind it.
Therefore,the purpose of this study is to find out the effectiveness of core muscle strengthening exercises and scar tissue release in concomitant low back pain after lumbar fusion surgery.
