Conditions
Interventions
standard physical therapy
All Patients in the three groups will receive supervised systematic exercise therapy that was performed effectively in previous work. This program consisted of lower limb static, dynamic, and flexibility exer¬cises that targeted the quadriceps, hamstrings, and gluteus muscles; and core strength training for 20 minutes per day. This program will be applied 3 times per week for 6 weeks to all the participants
knee Decompression
continuous mechanical decompression using 20% of the body weight as a traction force for 15 minutes.
hot pack
hot pack over the treated knee joint will be applied for 20 minutes. this application will be performed while the patient is receiving the decompression session
