ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking to find out how effective two different types of exercises are for treating scapular dyskinesis, a condition where the shoulder blade moves improperly, in male cricket players. Specifically, the study will compare exercises using a theraband (a stretchy exercise band) versus general exercises. The goal is to see which method helps improve shoulder movement and function better for these athletes.

To participate in this trial, male cricket players aged 18 to 30 who have been playing cricket for at least a year and train regularly (at least four times a week) may be eligible. However, players who have had recent surgeries on their shoulder or neck, or who have certain injuries or serious health issues, won't be able to take part. Since the trial is not yet recruiting, interested players will need to wait for it to start to learn more about how they can get involved. Participants can expect to engage in different exercise routines and help researchers understand what works best for improving shoulder movement in cricketers.
