MCKENZIE EXERCISE VERSUS WILLIAMS EXERCISE ON DECREASING PAIN IN ADOLESCENT WITH NON SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN Low back pain is uncommon in the first decade of life,but prevalence increases steeply during the teenage years; around 40% of 9-18-year olds in high-income, medium-income, and low-income countries report having had low back pain. NSLBP represents about 85% of LBP patients seen in primary care. Non-specific low back pain is one of the most common health problems and is the leading cause of disability in young adults. During school age, the overall risk of low back pain is similar to adults, with prevalence rates as high as 70% to 80% by the age of 20 years old Non-specific low back pain is defined as low back pain not attributable to a recognisable, known specific pathology. Understanding back pain in adolescents is crucial to obtain timely diagnosis and determine appropriate treatment. Proper treatment and management of LBP in the adolescent years can minimize back pain lasting into adulthood Non pharmacological treatments are emphasised over pharmacological interventions in the management of persistent non-specific low back pain. natinal institute for health and care excellence(NICE) 2016 draft guideline endorses self-management, exercise, manual therapy, psychological therapies, combined physical and psychological programmes, return-to-work programmes, and radiofrequency denervation. Back exercises can be an inexpensive and easy option of treatment for NSLBP and proven to be effective. McKenzie extension exercise and William flexion exercise are the most common types of back exercises. Selection the appropriate treatment method is important. So this study will be aimed to compare between Mckenzie and William's exercises in order to find which method has better effect on adolescents with NSLBP.

Other | YMED TEST Balance Test | This smart phone application was developed by Physio tools YMED; a group from the kwangju Health College, South Korea. It allows the performance of several tests: vestibular balance test, sitting balance test, knee balance test and board balance test .
Vestibular and board balance tests will be used as the following: • Vestibular balance test: Smart phone device will be fixed on the patient's back by strap and he will be asked firstly to keep standing with open eyes for 10 seconds and therapist click start button then to keep standing with closed eyes for 10 seconds and wait for report of test. • Board balance test: Patient will be asked to stand on a balance board and fix the smart phone on the board and the patient will be asked to stand steady as much as can for 10 seconds then print the reports. |

Primary | Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) | This will be used to determine the intensity of pain.The VAS is a valid and reliable measure of chronic pain intensity . It is the amount of pain that a patient feels ranges across a continuum from none to an extreme amount of pain. Operationally, a VAS is usually a horizontal line, 100 mm in length, anchored by word descriptors at each end The patient will mark on the line at the point that he feels which represents his perception of the current state.The VAS score is determined by measuring in millimeters from the left hand end of the line to the point that the child marks . | changes in pain at 4 weeks | |
Secondary | ModifiedSchober's Test(MSchober test) | The mSchober test is frequently used method for assessing lumbar flexion range of motion (ROM).
Test will be done as follows: The participant will stand in neutral erect position without shoes. The assessor will marks 1 point 5 cm below and 1 point 10 cm above the lumbosacral junction(dimples of Venus), that is, 15 cm in upright position. The participant will be asked to make 2 attempts to bend forward as far as possible, the first will be a trial attempt, and the assessor measured the distance between the marks on the second attempt The increase in distance between the marks was then calculated as the measure of lumbar flexion ROM. In general, the measure should increase by at least 6 cm to 21 cm. An increase of less than 6 cm suggests decreased lumbar spinal mobility. |
