Eligibility

All

Age

20 Years to 60 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Men patients aged between (20 – 60) years old. 2. NS-CLBP repeated or continued for a minimum period of 3 months duration.3. The presence of localized pain in the lower back (pain in the area from 12th to gluteal folds) without pain referral or radicular into the lower extremities.4. Moderate pain =Numeric pain scale 5 to 7/10.5. No severe pathology or the absence of “red flags” (specific causes of LBP such as cauda equine syndrome or inflammatory disease).6. Pain/symptom provocation on static, one-sided loading and/or more specific activities/postures (e.g. desktop-workers, car driver...), whereas dynamic (low load) exercises/activities result in pain reduction and/or functional improvement.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: The presence of non-mechanical pain generalized pain on a specific function, such as the diagnosis of (eg, spinal canal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, spinal fracture, acute inflammatory diseases, hemorrhagic diseases, active tuberculosis, and recent deep vein thrombosis).Had overt neurological signs (sensory deficits or motor paralysis).Had diagnosed spinal deformities or previous spine surgery.Any problems in hips (i.e. fractures, dislocations), knee (i.e. paresthesia below the knee) and ankle (i.e. ankle instability).Systemic diseases (diabetes, tumors).
