Abstract
An increase in longetivity globally with more elderly population of falls, treating low back pain, exercises for urinary bladder control and obesity.
Aims & Objectives of this original case presentation was to analyze the impact of resisted exercises on obesity and multiple lumbar disc lesion using Oswestry and womac score.
Materials & Methodology: 70 year old moderately obese female with multiple lumbar disc lesion was treated with resisted exercises during the period from September 2017 to November 2017. With weekly twice frequency pre and post WC, Oswestry and womac were recorded and statistically analyzed.
Results: with WC, Oswestry and womac showing P <.01
Conclusion: Reduction in obesity along with improved physical functioning with exercises among geriatric subject was the key outcome of this study.
