Interventions
Intervention1: Eccentric Strengthening Exercise with Conventional Physiotherapy: Participants will begin each session with a 5-minute warm-up on a stationary cycle ergometer at low rate (50 rpm) & low
isometric strengthening exercise for 10 repetitions with 5 seconds hold × 1-2-3 sets on the quadriceps, and hip adductor muscle
mobilisation with movement for 6-10 repetitions × 3 sets
patellar glides at two to three oscillations/sec for 2 minutes in all directions as 3-6 repetitions
therapeutic ultrasound in continuous mode (1 watt/cm2 dose, 1 MHz) for 5 minutes and apply with a 5cm diameter applicator under the supervision of the physiotherapist.
After receiving conventional car
eccentric hip abduction strengthening exercise for 10 repetitions × 3 sets by strapping sand bag to the ankle of the patient
weight will be distributed according to patient tolerance level and conditions
1-4 Session: 50% of 10 RM
5-8 Session: 75% of 10 RM
