Brief Summary

We aimed to assess the influence of progressive muscle relaxation exercise on kinesiophobia and pain during after lumbar disc surgery using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and the Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale in a prospective, randomized fashion.

Conditions

Lumbar Disc Herniation

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale

  : It is a 17-item scale. It gets a total score between 17-68. A high score on the scale indicates a high level of kinesiophobia.

  the day before the surgery

• Visual Analogue Scale

  It is the scale used to measure the severity of pain in patients. It is a scale whose beginning is -0- "no pain", and the other end is -10- "very severe pain" and each cm is given a numerical value at 1 centimeter (cm) intervals.

  the day before the surgery

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale

  third day after surgery

• Visual Analogue Scale

  third day after surgery
