Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: group 1
This group receives KinesioTaping along with conventional treatment
|
Kinesio-taping with conventional therapy 24, 48 and 72 hours standardized therapeutic KT application along with conventional therapy (hot pack, strengthening and stretching exercises). The patient laid supine.To maintain proprioceptive stimulation in the quadriceps (from origin towards insertion) and to alleviate the tension of hamstring muscle, a 'Y'-shaped kinesiotaping will be applied. Afterward, 2 pieces of 'I'-shaped tapes were stretched by 75% through the mechanical correction technique and will be applied around the patellar circumference in the way that it would allow the patella to move naturally in the femoral cavity while the knee was in 45 flexion CONVENTIONAL THERAPY: Stretching of hamstrings 10 reps 10 sec hold. Straight leg raise 3 sets* 10 reps, 1 min interval. Strengthening of Quadriceps (quads isometric) and VMO with 10 reps and 3 sets, 1 min interval) Squatting (10 reps* 3 sets, 1 min interval) |
Experimental: group 2
This group receives mulligan taping along with conventional treatment
|
Mulligan taping will be applied while patient in standing position and the hip, knee will be internally rotated and flexed to 20 degree. Rigid tape will be applied from neck of fibula which will be passing anteriorly over the tibia to secure internal rotation of tibia at the knee, and passing below the medial joint line and behind the knee, 2 superimposed layers of 38-mm rigid tape will be applied in a spiral fashion. Tape will be applied for 24, 48 and 72 hours. And it must come off immediately if any pain and skin irritation is experienced. Along with conventional therapy. Stretching of hamstrings 10 reps 10 sec hold. Straight leg raise 3 sets* 10 reps, 1 min interval. Strengthening of Quadriceps (quads isometric) and VMO with 10 reps and 3 sets, 1 min interval) Squatting (10 reps* 3 sets, 1 min interval) |

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Kujala pain Rating score
Time Frame: 72 hours
|
The Kujala pain rating scale is a 13-item screening instrument designed to assess patellofemoral pain in adolescents and young adults, with a variable ordinal response format.
For example, a 'Limp' score would be scored as follows: none (5), slight/periodic (3), constant (0).
Total scores range from 0 to 100.

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Numeric pain rating scale
Time Frame: 72 hours
|
Numeric pain rating scale is used to assess the intensity of pain before and after intervention.
Its value ranges from 0-10.
O indicates no pain and 10 indicate maximum pain.
Reliability of this tool is r=0.957.
It will be measured at 24 hour, 48 hour, and 72 hour.
|
72 hours
|
Time Up and Go
Time Frame: 72 hours
|
Time up and go test is used to assess the dynamic balance ability, in this subject took to rise from 46cm height arm chair, walk 3 meter, turn back at affected side and walk back to chair and sit.
Reliability of this tool is r = 0.98 to 0.99.
It will be measured at 24 hour, 48 hour, and 72 hour
|
72 hours
|
Active Knee Extension Test
Time Frame: 72 hours
|
To check hamstring flexibility, patient position is in supine and effected leg is in 90-degree hip flexion.
Patient is asked to extend the knee.
The actual cutoff value for the Active knee extension test is 160.
Normal individual has range of >160 or equal to160 (=160) and angle <160 considered hamstring tightness.)
