Brief Summary  

The aim of the study is to find out effectiveness of “ VIMS JAW CLAMP ” in adjunct to physiotherapy treatment in patients with trismus secondary to Head and Neck Cancer as compared to physiotherapy alone- A Randomized Control Trial. 34 participants having trismus secondary to head and neck cancer will be recruited based on the inclusion criteria and then divided into two groups . Experimental group will be given MET for mouth opening , Active jaw exercises along with passive stretching provided by " VIMS JAW CLAMP" and neck exercises. Control group will be given MET for mouth opening , Active jaw exercises and neck exercises. The intervention will be given for two weeks. The outcomes will be taken at baseline, immediately after 2 weeks and after 1 week and the data will be analyzed statistically.
