ABSTRACT:

The purpose of the study was to see the effect of wall slide and ground-based push up exercises on scapular alignment and shoulder range of motion in a greater tubercle fracture of humerus with brachial plexus injury. Patient complaints of pain on shoulder, difficulty in shoulder movements, loss of movement and strength in wrist and elbow. Clinical findings include reduction in shoulder mobility, increase in scapular alignment has been done with lateral scapular slide test. Rationale: static push-up and ball push-up exercise, upper limb and abdominal muscles largely contribute to maintaining balance without any instability. This study showed improvements in range, strength, and Functions with the use of wall slide and ground-based push up exercises.

Key words: Greater Tuberosity, wall slide, scapular downward rotation, push-up exercise.
