ABSTRACT
Lower cross syndrome results from muscle strength imbalance in the lower segment. It also involves tightness of the iliopsoas, rectus femoris, fascia lata tensor, adductor group, gastrocnemius, and soleus. Pressure biofeedback device is used for the purpose of measuring and treating the transverse abdominis muscle. This study is needed because over time due to prolonged daily activities and lack of regular exercises in young people, this leads to muscle imbalance which leads to low back pain in this population. The goal of the study is to screen for lower cross syndrome in asymptomatic individual. To screen for lower cross syndrome in asymptomatic individual. Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 300 persons will be included in the study, and the suitable evaluation method for lower cross syndrome will be used. Females had increased muscle tension and weakness, according to the findings. The iliopsoas muscle, in particular. The length of the spinal extensor muscle, the strength of the transverse abdominus, and the strength of the gluteus maximus muscle are all notable differences. Lower cross syndrome can also cause some postural problems in young people. Females were shown to be more likely than males to acquire lower cross syndrome in this study. According to this study, young people are more likely to acquire lower cross syndrome as a result of bad posture, prolonged sitting, and a variety of other variables. Females are more likely than males to acquire lower cross syndrome, according to this study.
