Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to find the effect of a program of corrective kinesiotaping on pain intensity, foot function, and the sonographic picture of plantar fascia in adolescents with pronated feet.This study hypothesizes that there will be a statistically significant effect of a program of application of the corrective technique of kinesiotaping on plantar heel pain, foot function, and the sonographic picture of plantar fascia in a sample of Egyptian adolescents suffering from pronated feet.
