摘要：
Objective: To find the frequency of functional limitations in upper limb in the women who were previously affected by breast cancer. Methodology: This cross sectional study included 120 breast cancer survivors who were asked to fill the quick Dash questionnaire to collect data. Results: We found that 60% of women did score greater than 29 on their quick Dash questionnaire indicating some level of functional limitations in their upper limb. Conclusion: Breast cancer survivors develop some level of functional limitations in their upper limb as to consider it a problem.
