Outcome measures: Prior and after the treatment both the outcome measures, Fall efficacy scale, Instrumental activities of daily living and Nottingham health profile were taken. Intervention protocol was given for 1 hour, 3 times a week for 4 weeks. Prior and after the treatment the outcome measures that is Fall efficacy scale, Instrumental activities of daily living and Nottingham health profile were taken. 51 participants were selected based on the selection criteria. Their informed written consent was taken. Methodology: The nature of the study and the intervention were explained to the participants. Aim: To study the effect of balance and core strengthening exercise on fall, activities of daily living and quality of life in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Sensory and motor deficit are affected due to somatosensory changes which lead to continuous falling during activities of daily living. Reduce ROM, muscle strength and changes in gait mechanics can lead to reduce mobility and increase fall of risk. Gait mechanics may be affected as a result. DPN disturbs the sensory and motor control system which eventually generation and control of the gait. Around 50% of diabetic patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus suffer from neuropathy. The estimated prevalence globally of DPN is 13-68%. Background: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is one of the long-term complications of diabetes caused by peripheral motor and sensory nerve disfunction.
