Background: The athlete's capacity to tolerate pain is one of the most important features of sporting success. Research suggest that a verity of pain suffers can benefit from exercise. Duration of play may increase in pain threshold and pain tolerance in soccer players.Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of pain threshold and pain tolerance on participation in playing soccer.
Design: This was a same subject pre-test post-test trial. Setting: The study was conducted at Siri Fort Sports Complex and Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium (Sports Authority of India) New Delhi.
Participants: Thirty healthy male district level soccer player (aged 17-22 years) participated in the study.
Measurements: A gross pressure device was used to induce pain, and to measure pain threshold and pain tolerance. It consisted of a sphygmomanometer and rubber coated steel cleat. Cleat along with shin guard was placed of the medial surface of the tibia approximately in the middle portion. Pain was induced by inflating the sleeve at 10 mmHg every 10 seconds. The subjects were asked to inform when they first sense pain. The pressure was noted as pain threshold reading. Pressure was further increased till the subject cannot endure it readings were noted as pain tolerance and pressure was released. The readings were taken before, between and after the game.
Results: Compared with three readings of pain threshold and pain tolerance a repeated measure of ANOVA showed a significant difference. A bonferroni test was used for post hoc pair wise comparison among all three conditions showed a significant difference among three possible pairs. Limitations: Further work is needed to determine whether sex differences in pain coping mechanism exist before, during after competition.
Conclusion: The present data suggest that changes in pain threshold and pain tolerance in soccer player depend on the duration of play. The result of this study proves that the participation in game to improve the pain threshold and pain tolerance in soccer players.
