Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Shoulder Pain. Timepoint: 3 timepoints including baseline, after 2nd week and 4th week. Method of measurement: Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) to measure pain.;Shoulder Range of Motion (Flexion, Lateral rotation, Medial rotation and Abduction) will be measured by means of universal goniometer. Timepoint: 3 timepoints including baseline, after 2nd week and 4th week. Method of measurement: Goniometer is used to measure the ROM.	—
