简要总结
Osteoarthritis is a one of the major chronic joint disease worldwide. Cartilage is the central tissue affected by OA and causes subsequent symptoms, including joint pain, stiffness and joint swelling, which diminishes the range of motion. 30 Osteoarthritis participants will be randomly selected for the study from different physiotherapy OPDs of Rajkot. The participants will randomly divided into two groups: Experimental Group N= 15 and Conventional Group N=15. The Experimental group will receive Kinesiotaping and Conventional physiotherapy for 3 weeks and the Conventional group will receive the conventional physiotherapy protocol for 3 weeks. The Pre and Post treatment scores of NPRS, mWOMAC and Active knee extension test will be measured.The aim of this study to determine the effectiveness of additional Kinesio-taping (KT) with the conventional physiotherapy on pain, Hamstring tightness and functional disability in knee osteoarthritis participants The hypothesis of this study is there will be no difference in kinesio-taping over conventional physiotherapy exercises on pain, Hamstring tightness and knee functional disability in knee osteoarthritis participants. Experimental Hypothesis will be a significant difference in kinesio-taping over conventional physiotherapy exercises on pain, Hamstring tightness and knee functional disability in knee osteoarthritis participants
