Brief Summary  
It is a randomized controlled trial with a duration of 6 weeks and involving 50 patients that will be divided into two groups based on the lottery method. Its intervention involves dynamic neuromuscular stabilization exercise and hot pack in one group and core strengthening exercise and hot pack  in second group. The patients will be informed about the study and written informed consent will be taken. First, each patient’s demographic information including age, height and weight will be gathered as a baseline data. Pre- Intervention measurements of outcome variables including VAS, SITS-UP, ODI will be taken. Intervention will be given for 6 weeks and then post-intervention data of all the outcome variables will be taken
