Primary Objective: To find out the effect of Swallowing and Non-Swallowing Exercises on Dysphagia in Post-Operative Oral Cancer individuals. Secondary Objective: To compare the effect of Swallowing and Non-Swallowing Exercises on Dysphagia on Quality of Life in Post-Operative Oral Cancer individuals. Methods: The study was conducted in Krishna Hospital Karad where 66 participants with post-operative oral cancer were selected according to the inclusion criteria. Simple random sampling was used to allocate the subjects into Group A (n=33) (non-swallowing exercises) & Group B (n=33) (swallowing exercises). The subjects performed respective exercises for 5 weeks. Pre & post assessment was performed by the outcome measures. Results: Using paired t test both the Groups demonstrated significant results with all the outcome measures MWST with p<0.0001, MDADI with p<0.0001 and FACT H&N with p<0.0001 respectively concluding extremely significant results. Unpaired t test analysis for MWST, MDADI & FACT H&N of group A showed extremely significant mean difference as compare to group B with p<0.0001. Conclusion: This study concluded that both swallowing and non-swallowing exercises are beneficial for dysphagia in post-operative oral cancer individuals, but the Non-Swallowing Exercises were more effective.
