Brief Summary:
This study aims to explore how kinesiology taping affects people with mild to moderate meniscus injuries grades III focusing on pain movement fears muscle strength balance joint movement and quality of life
Two groups will be involved one will receive kinesiology taping on the thigh muscle with some tension while the other will receive a placebo tape with no tension Researchers will measure various factors including pain and muscle strength both before and 48-72 hours after taping

Detailed Description:
This study aims to understand the short-term acute effects of kinesiology taping on people with mild to moderate meniscus injuries grade III These injuries affecting the cartilage in the knee can cause pain reduced mobility and fear of movement Kinesiology taping a popular therapy involves applying elastic tape to support muscles and joints This research looked at whether taping could improve pain muscle strength movement balance and quality of life in patients with these knee injuries
Study Design The study will use a randomized placebo-controlled and double-blinded design meaning that patients were randomly assigned to two groups and neither the patients nor the researchers knew which group each person was in during the treatment
Experimental Group will receive kinesiology taping on the quadriceps muscle the large muscle at the front of the thigh using a Y-shaped technique with moderate tension 25-50 stretch
Control Group will receive a placebo tape applied without tension and placed in a different direction
Measurements
To evaluate the effects of taping several aspects will be measured both before the tape was applied and 48-72 hours later
Pain levels Fear of movement kinesiophobia Muscle strength ability to extend the knee Proprioception awareness of limb position and force applied Joint range of motion how much the knee can bend and straighten Joint position sense accuracy in detecting knee position with eyes closed Quality of life using a questionnaire SF-36 that assesses various aspects like physical function and energy levels
