Brief Summary  

Pain after breast cancer surgery is a major problem and women undergoing mastectomy and breast reconstruction experience postoperative pain syndromes in approximately one-half of all cases.The cause of pain following breast cancer surgery can be as a result of extensive tissue damage, brachial plexus injury following axillary dissection, vascular injury, infection, axillary web syndrome, lymphedema, etc. Yoga interventions have demonstrated positive effects on behavioral symptoms related to fatigue, including depressed mood, pain and physical function..Various components of yoga program such as asanas, meditation, pranayama and relaxation have been used in these studies. Yoga has also demonstrated its utility in other chronic pain syndromes such as fibromyalgia in non-cancer populations. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Yoga Therapy in Management of Post-operative Myofascial Pain in Breast Cancer Patients.Each patient who is eligible to take part will be randomly allocated to Test or control group. Both groups will receive standard care in the form of surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and physiotherapy as adviced by the oncologist. Yoga group will undergo 35 min Yoga protocol along with standard care for 4 weeks. Both groups will be assessed after 4 weeks to see the improvements.
