Current Research in Ayush (Alternative Medicine – Healing Journey of Cancer) | Chapter 01 | Emerging Trends in Disease and Health Research Vol. 2

 Introduction: Breast cancer accounts for 10.4% of all cancer cases in women worldwide. Breast cancer claimed the lives of 519,000 people globally in 2004. (7 percent of cancer deaths; almost 1 percent of all deaths). Many women who have breast surgery experience a variety of pain symptoms.

The purpose of this study is to see how effective twin treatment techniques are on certain biophysiological measures in breast cancer patients who have had breast surgery at a certain hospital in Chennai.

The purpose of this research is to:

Determine the level of various biophysiological parameters in women who have had their breasts removed.

Evaluate the impact of twin treatment techniques on specific biophysiological markers in women who have had a mastectomy.

Establish a link between the use of twin treatment techniques and specific biophysiological markers.

Associate certain biophysiological indicators in women following mastectomy with the relevant demographic characteristics.

The study was conducted using a pre-experimental research design. At the government general hospital in Chennai, fifty women were chosen using a straightforward sampling technique.

Results: In the study group, 49 (98%) of them had moderate pain in the pre-test, and after the intervention, they all had light pain in the post-test. In terms of shoulder function before to the intervention, the study group had 49 (98%) movement towards gravity and 24 (48%) movement against gravity maximum resistance after the intervention. At a 'P' level of 0.001, there was a considerable reduction in discomfort and shoulder stiffness. Although there was a negative relationship between pranayama practise and discomfort, there was a favourable relationship between arm exercise practise and shoulder function. In the study, there was no significant relationship between demographic and clinical factors and pain and shoulder function.

Hypothesis: Women who receive a pranayama and arm exercise programme after breast surgery have a substantial change in pain and shoulder function. The pranayama had an effect on pain relief, and the arm exercise programme had an effect on preventing arm stiffness in post-operative women after breast surgery. As a result, the idea was accepted.

Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that increasing age is linked to an increased risk of breast cancer, that level of pain is linked to level of pain, and that type of surgery is linked to level of pain and shoulder function. As a result, the study participants may benefit from pranayama and arm exercise programmes.
