Brief Summary

This study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of using Kinesio tape versus strapping the knee on pain management

Conditions

Osgood-Schlatter Disease

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Comparison of the effect of knee strap with the effect of Kinesio tape on pain management in Osgood Schlatter disease

  Pain assessment using visual analogue scale. it is widely used to assess pain using straight horizontal line with a fixed length usually 100mm, the two ends of the line represent the extreme limits of the parameter being measured, the left end represents the worst condition while the right end represent the best condition. zero to ten from left to right, zero means no pain and ten is the worest pain

  baseline

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Range of motion assessment

  baseline

• muscle power assessment

  baseline

• functional assessment

effect of Kinesio tape application in Osgood Schlatter disease

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

will recieve kinesio tape in addition to traditional exercises program including ultrasoud therapy and heat application.

Other: kinesio tape

effect of knee strap application in Osgood Schlatter disease

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

knee strap in addition to traditional exercises program including ultrasoud therapy and heat application.

Other: knee strap

Interventions

kinesio tape OTHER

Kinesio tape a therapeutic tape that's applied strategically to the body to provide lessen pain, reduce swelling, improve performance.
