Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Ankle Range of Motion (Active & Passive) will be taken. ankle dorsiflexion and planarflexion will be taken in sitting position using universal goniometer. Three reading of each measurement will be taken and the average will be taken.Timepoint: Baseline and After 4 weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Plantar pressure distribution will be taken using the Harris mat. the patient will walk on a 5 meter walkway and step on the the Mat placed in midway. the foot impression will be taken and then analyzed using the Podia Scan Software(Diabetik Care Pvt Ltd )Timepoint: Measurements will be taken on first day of treatment and on last day of treatment after 4 weeks
