| ABDOMINAL BINDERS | Other | will be given abdominal binders along with basic physiotherapy care. Physiotherapy care will include sitting exercises such as deep breathing exercises, protected huffing technique will be performed to improve gases exchange and remove secretion. In supine exercises such as basic ROM, ankle pumps, pelvic rolling, leg sliding will be performed. Each exercise will be of 10 repetition. This exercise will be given for 2 days per week for 6 weeks. Along with these exercises education related postural management and breastfeeding positions will also be guided |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| o Numeric Pain rating Scale | Numeric pain rating scale is a subjective measure 11 point numerical scale which is used to measure pain. Is scoring range In this scale 0 shows no pain and 10 shows worst pain imaginable. It has good reliability of 0.79 and validity of 0.96. | 6th week |
| o Symptom Distress scale | Symptom distress scale is a 13 item self-assessment scale with 13 symptoms like pain, fatigue, insomnia, lack of appetite, nausea, breathlessness, lack of concentration, lack of appetite and altered mood.

It has a reliability of 0.821 and validity of 0.825. | 6th week |
| o PAC-SYM Questionnaire | The PAC-SYM is a tool which is used to assess the severity of constipation. It range is from 0 and 48. Less value shows less severity of constipation. The patients were then asked to rate the severity of each symptom in a 5-point Likert scale (0-4; absent to very severe) during the past 2 weeks. The items were further categorized into 3 domains: abdominal symptoms (question 1-4), rectal symptoms (question 5-7), and stool symptoms (question 8-12).

| TENS | Other | will receive TENS with high frequency (F=100Hz and T=100μs), intensity according to patient's pain threshold, duration of 30 continuous minutes, 2 cm above and below incision, with electrodes transversally positioned and crossing the incision. Two treatment sessions will be done per week for the period of 6 weeks. This group will be given tens along with abdominal binders with basic physiotherapy care. (23) In this treatment female's abdomen will be measured by a standard inch tape, then, according to the abdominal circumference, the binder will be fastened for 6 weeks. The binder will be placed tightly at the lower abdominal level with the incision positioned at the middle part of the binder. Participants will be asked to note the time to record the duration of binder wearing before taking the break. The binder will be opened between 10 pm and 8 am. This group will be given abdominal binders along with basic physiotherapy care |
