N2  - Background: Lumbosacral radicular pain is a common symptom affecting the general population annually. The core stability exercises and McKenzie exercises are effective noninvasive treatment for lumbosacral radiculopathy (LSR). The lumbosacral angle (LSA) is important in the management of patients with low back disorders. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the efficacy of McKenzie exercises on LSA in patients with LSR. Methods: This prospective study was conducted in the Department of Physical Therapy of Gamal Abdel Nasser hospital, Alexandria. Thirty patients from both genders with discogenic lumbosacral radiculopathy participated in this study. The patients were randomly allocated to one of two equal groups. Group one received core stability exercises. Group two received core stability exercises and McKenzie exercises on the lumbosacral area. The patients were assessed before treatment, two and four weeks after treatment by visual analogue scale (VAS) for measurement of pain, Oswestry low back disability questionnaire for measurement of functional disability and Rippstein plurimeter for measurement of lumbosacral angle. Results: There was a significant decrease of back pain in G2 after four weeks of treatment in comparison to G1, also there was a significant decrease of leg pain and functional disability in G2 after two weeks and after four weeks of treatment in comparison to G1.There was no significant difference between both groups in lumbosacral angle
