Conditions

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of core stabilization exercise on functional outcome and craniovertebral angle which is the angle of forward head , in adults with cervical radiculopathy. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is there a significant effect of core stabilization exercises (CSEs) on craniovertebral angle (CVA) in patients with cervical radiculopathy? * Is there a significant effect of core stabilization exercises (CSEs) on functional outcome in patients with cervical radiculopathy? Researchers will compare effect of adding core stabilization exercises to conventional physical therapy program (TENS, hot pack, US, manual therapy and strengthening exercises) Vs conventional physical therapy program alone to see if there is a beneficial effect of adding core stabilization exercises to physical therapy program Participants in study group will perform core stabilization exercises in addition to conventional PT program while participants in control group will receive conventional PT program
