| Pain. Timepoint: Before and after 6 weeks. Method of measurement: Pain in the calf is measured using a visual analog scale (VAS). A 100 mm line is drawn where 0 indicates no pain and 10 represents the maximum pain intensity. Participants mark their level of pain over the past 24 hours by placing stickers on the line corresponding to their perceived pain intensity. The distance in millimeters from the starting point to the sticker is measured to quantify the pain intensity. Measurements in the range of 0-10 mm indicate no pain, 10-30 mm indicate mild pain, 40-60 mm indicate moderate pain, and 70-100 mm indicate severe pain.;Strength. Timepoint: Before and after 6 weeks. Method of measurement: Position the subject comfortably with the shoulder in a standardized position (e.g., 90 degrees shoulder abduction and 90 degrees elbow flexion). Place the dynamometer next to the wrist or hand to prevent unnecessary movements during the test. The subject performs a maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) of the shoulder rotator muscles (e.g., internal or external rotation). The dynamometer records the peak force generated during the contraction, providing a quantitative measure of muscle strength.;Grip Strength. Timepoint: Before and after 6 weeks. Method of measurement: To measure grip strength using a hand dynamometer, the subject should stand with their head in a neutral position, looking straight ahead, and hold the dynamometer's handle. To adjust the dynamometer handle, the subject is instructed to position the angle between the second and third phalanges of the middle finger vertically. For the test, the subject may position their forearm at any angle from 90 to 180 degrees, while the entire arm should hang down and be perpendicular to the ground. The examiner will instruct the subject using four commands (Ready, Start, Squeeze as hard as you can, and Stop). Two consecutive trials will be performed for each hand, with a one-minute rest between each trial. The examiner will re | — |
