简要总结
Low back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, the prevalence of low back pain can be as high as 43%. Past research has shown the positive effects of Kinesio taping in patients with chronic and nonspecific low back pain in pain reduction, improvement in postural stability, and improvement in function. However, no study has yet evaluated the effects of KT in persons with discogenic LBP. If found to be effective KT can be prescribed as a conservative & cost-effective treatment for patients with discogenic low back pain.

结局指标
主要结局
Gait velocity
时间窗: 2 weeks.
velocity of gait will be measured via gait analysis.
Back Pain
时间窗: 2 weeks.
Back Pain will be measured via numerical pain rating scale. A higher score signifies greater pain.
Disability
时间窗: 2 weeks.
Disability will be measured via Oswestry Disability Index. A higher score signifies poorer outcome.
Postural Stability
时间窗: 2 weeks.
Postural Stability will be measured via Biodex Balance System. A higher score signifies poorer stability.
Cadence
时间窗: 2 weeks.
Cadence of gait will be measured via gait analysis.
Stride length
时间窗: 2 weeks.
Stride length of gait will be measured via gait analysis.
