Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this research; To evaluate the relationship between low back pain and pelvic floor muscle strength, urinary incontinence, constipation and sexual dysfunction in female individuals with lumbar disc herniation. No study on this has been found in the literature.

Hypotheses of the study; Ho: ''There is no difference in terms of the relationship between low back pain and Pelvic Floor Muscle Strength, Urinary Incontinence, Constipation and Sexual Dysfunction in Female Individuals with Lumbar Disc Herniation.'' H1: ''There is a difference in terms of the relationship between low back pain and Pelvic Floor Muscle Strength, Urinary Incontinence, Constipation and Sexual Dysfunction in Female Individuals with Lumbar Disc Herniation.''

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Low back pain is a problem that is caused by overwork and impaired functional capacity. It has been observed that the source of low back pain is due to intervertebral disc pathologies at a rate of up to 39%. Lumbar disc herniation; Low back pain, manicure and numbness in fullness or cracks, muscle weakness, difficulty in moving, weakness, inability to hold places, pulling when sitting and deterioration in conditions, sudden stabbing pain in the waist area when coughing or sneezing, bursting of the herniated nucleus pulposus (nucleus pulposus). Lumbar disc herniation can be detected in non-symptomatic cases. Lumbar disc herniation, Protruded disc herniation (eccentric overflow is present; the annulus is intact), Extruded disc herniation (the nucleus has passed the ruptured annulus; however, there is still a connection with the nucleus formation at the disc borders.), Sequestered disc herniation (The residual piece has ruptured with the disc space and It is in the form of a free fragment.). One of the biggest causes of lower back pain is the weakness of the core muscles and their not being active at the right time. It is documented as a cylindrical shaped structure that provides the distance between the core, body, fillings and arms. The role of active, passive and normal structures in core stabilization can be sustained. Passive structures; bone, cartilage and connective tissues, and active structures consist of muscles. Core muscles in core stability; The respiratory muscles are the diaphragm, transversus abdominus muscle, multifidus muscle and pelvic floor muscles. These muscles create trunk and lumbo-pelvic stability and have a very important role in the muscular chain. In addition, it seems that the ability to remember sequences and the activation responses of these muscles are impaired or slowed down. It can cause dysfunction, especially in the transversus abdominus, multifudus and pelvic floor muscles.

emg- biofeedback

EMG activity shows the electrical activity measured during striated muscle contraction. The electrical activity of the muscle is in microvolts (1 volt = 1,000,000μV). Biofeedback units usually produce audio or visual feedback depending on the amount of electrical activity. Recording the bio-electrical activity of the muscle is a practical indicator of its contractility.
