About this study
Discogenic LBP is the leading cause of disability worldwide. Eventhough other types of Chronic LBP are more common, 63% of all patients reporting to tertiary care hospital with LBP are discogenic in nature. However, immediate effects of kinesio-taping on pain and postural stability in discogenic low back pain has not been well documented in existing literature. This study is focused on immediate effects of kinesiotaping on pain and postural stability in persons with discogenic low back pain.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
KinesiotapingProcedure or surgery
Biomechanical correction for discogenic low back pain using kinesiotaping
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Kinesiotaping | Experimental | Not described Receives: Procedure: Kinesiotaping |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Pain Pressure Threshold
Pain Pressure Threshold will be measured using algometer before and after the treatment session. Higher score signifies positive outcome.
Measured: 1 day
Back Pain
Pain will be measured using numeric pain rating scale before and after the treatment session. Higher score signifies negative outcome.
Measured: 1 day
Postural Stability
Postural Stability will be measured using Biodex Balance System before and after the treatment session
Measured: 1 day
