Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

kinesio taping would reduce pain, improve gait performance, and enhance the functional capacity of turf toe patients undergoing physical therapy

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Health practitioners have recently become interested in using kinesiology taping in clinical practice as an alternative to traditional taping and bracing procedures for treating a variety of diseases, including sprain of metatarsophalangeal joint of the big toe. Patients with turf toe can benefit from kinesiology tape because it offers therapeutic support and stability while preserving a normal range of motion.

exercise group

60-minutes exercise program, three times a week on alternate days for 12 successive weeks.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Traditional physical therapy program

Intervention Type OTHER

60-minutes exercise program, three times a week on alternate days for 12 successive weeks

placebo kinesiology taping plus exercise group

Kinesiology taping was used, however the strain was zero. Before each exercise session, the tape was changed every two days while the patients were present.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Traditional physical therapy program

Intervention Type OTHER

60-minutes exercise program, three times a week on alternate days for 12 successive weeks

placebo Kinsio taping

Intervention Type OTHER

One full strip of kinesiology taping tape and one half-length strip were needed for the placebo kinesiology taping application

kinesiology taping plus exercise group

putting no stress on the opposite end and a 50% stretch from the top of the big toe to the heel along the back of the heel. After applying a 50% stretch from the top of the big toe to the second horizontal little strip between the big toe and second toe, place the ends below the toe diagonally with no stress.
