High intensity lasers may affect deeper tissue as they have shorter emission time and longer emission intervals compared to low intensity lasers.6 In recent times, the use of high intensity laser for physical therapy has been shown to significantly reduce pain with a variety of causes.7,8 The anti-edematous, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect of Nd YAG laser for patients with pain has been determined by studies.9 Though there is no universal consensus to clearly explain the effect mechanism of laser, it is accepted as having three effects; photothermal, photochemical and photomechanic.10,11
