Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of Muscle Energy Techniques on post dural puncture headache neck pain and disability after Cesarean Section

Detailed Description: Caesarean section CS is the worldwide process of pregnancy termination that delivers live or dead fetuses with an incision on the abdominal wall and uterine wall

It is performed under neuraxial anesthesia spinal and epidural anesthesia Post- dural puncture headache PDPH is a major complication of neuraxial anesthesia which presents as a dull throbbing pain in a frontal-occipital distribution aggravates on sitting or standing and is reduced by lying down

This study will be a randomized clinical trial Subjects with PPDH meeting the predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria will be divided into two groups ie treatment and control group Both groups will receive baseline treatments ie heating pads TENS In addition treatment group will receive post-isometric relaxation of METs Each subject will receive a total of 4 treatment sessions with 2 treatment sessions per day

Pre-treatment will be done at day 1 and post-treatment will be done at day 2 using Headache Disability Index HDI Numeric Pain Rating Scale NPRS and Neck Disability Index NDI as subjective measurements Recorded values will be analysed for any change using SPSs
