Abstract
Pain is a distressing unpleasant, sensory and emotional experience often caused by intense or damaging stimuli. It is usually transitory and lasts till the noxious stimulus is removed or the underlying pathology has healed. The degree of post-operative pain depends on the site of the surgery. Surgery on thorax and upper abdominal region are usually more painful. Progressive Muscle Relaxation Techniques offers excellent results. A Quantitative true experimental study was conducted in SVMCH& RC hospital with 40 Undergoing abdominal surgery samples. 20 in experimental and 20 in control group are chosen by simple random sampling technique. Pre test and post test was conducted in both groups. Progressive Muscle Relaxation Techniques was provided to experimental group for I week. The post test mean and SD of experimental group was 1.50 ± 0.68 with „t‟ value of 6.78 which was significant at p<0.05 level.
