Summary

This study evaluate the effectiveness of wet needling technique in reducing pain, improving function and enhancing the quality of life in patellofemoral pain syndrome patient.Patellofemoral pain syndrome is a common knee condition that significantly affects physical activity and quality of life .

Conditions

  • Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

Interventions

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Wet Needling

This involve the use of needles to inject a local anesthetics into trigger points or areas of muscle tightness around the knee particularly in the quadriceps surrounding soft tissue implicated in patellofemoral pain syndrome .To reduce localized pain, release muscle tension and improve tissue function.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Kinesiotaping

Application of kinesiotape around knee joint or quadricep following a specific technique aimed at reducing pain and improving joint stability . The tape is typically applied to encourge proper movement patterns , reducing swelling and provide sensory feedback to brain. Strengthening exercises : To strenghthen the quadriceps , gluteal muscles and other key stabilizing muscles of lower limbs.
