Abstract
Background and aim: Due to the prevalence of musculoskeletal symptoms among students and the threat to their health, the effect of a course of corrective exercises on musculoskeletal disorders in male students was discussed in this article.
Methods: This research was an applied study in terms of descriptive-analytical method and its data collection was done by the field method. The statistical population of the study was all students in Mashhad in 1400 who were randomly selected from a number of schools. The samples of this study consisted of students who had musculoskeletal disorders and were randomly divided into two groups of intervention and control. The correction protocol for the intervention group was performed three days a week for 45 to 90 minutes for 8 consecutive weeks in the student sports club.
Results: The results showed that the highest frequency of musculoskeletal problems was observed in the neck (48.56%), knees and ankles (42.38%), back (35.69%), and lumbar (33.92%), respectively. Corrective exercises had a significant effect on the musculoskeletal disorders of the intervention group in the neck (P = 0.05 and Z = 3.31), lumbar (P = 0.05 and Z = 2.27), shoulder (P = 0.05 and Z = 3.04), and wrist area (P = 0.05 and Z = 3.81). No change was observed in the control group.
Conclusion: Correctional exercises during 8 weeks with and without emphasis on active self-correction affect the musculoskeletal status of students.
