Study Groups

MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
MLD was performed after the moist heating of 10 minutes in supine position with both knees bent. It will start from the abdominal lymph drainage followed by the central lymph drainage.
Then, by stimulating the bilateral axillary lymph nodes, the flow of the fluid was directed to the axillary lymph node. Each session lasted for approximately 45 minutes, for 7 days
THERAPEUTIC ULTRASOUND
THERAPEUTIC ULTRASOUND
The participants of group B will receive a treatment of manual lymphatic drainage and ultrasound after the moist heat of 10 minutes. After MLD of 45 minutes, ultrasound will be performed in small circular pattern from periphery to the center towards the areola with following parameters: Mode: pulsed, Frequency: 1MHz, Intensity: 1W/cm2, Time: 8 minutes. Treatment was given for 7 consecutive days
