Effect of Stabilization Exercises Added to Routine Physiotherapy on Trunk Muscle Dimensions, Pain, Disability, and Lumbar Range of Motion in Patients With Unilateral Lumbar Disc Protrusion: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

A randomized controlled trial examined whether adding stabilization exercises to standard physiotherapy improved outcomes in patients with unilateral lumbar disc protrusion. Participants receiving the combined approach showed greater gains in trunk muscle dimensions, pain reduction, decreased disability, and improved lumbar range of motion compared to routine physiotherapy alone. These findings support incorporating targeted stabilization training into rehabilitation protocols for this patient population.
