So, blocks of 10 people including 5 participants in the intervention group and 5 participants in the control group are allocated, Blinding description: The examiner won't know anything about the kind of treatment. The Patients and therapists will also not know anything about grouping and kind of interventions. 3 Anterior knee pain. Intervention 1: Control group: Interventions in this group include: 1) Infrared therapy for 20 minutes: The Infrared bulb is positioned at a distance of 50 cm from the shoulder of the individual. The patient will feel mild heat. 2- Treatment with transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation(TENS) type brief for 20 minutes. In this method, four electrodes on the sides of the knee will be used. The frequency used varies from 3 to 120 Hz, and the patient will feel the electrical current, along with the muscle vibrations. 3- Exercise for strengthening muscle should include five exercises from the third to the tenth sessions twice daily. Intervention 2: Intervention group: Intervention group: Interventions in this group include: 1) Infrared therapy for 20 minutes: The Infrared bulb is positioned at a distance of 50 cm from the shoulder of the individual. The patient will feel mild heat. 2- Treatment with TENS type brief for 20 minutes. In this method, four electrodes on the sides of the shoulder will be used. The frequency used varies from 3 to 120 Hz, and the patient will feel the electrical current, along with the muscle vibrations. 3- Exercise for strengthening muscle should include five exercises from the third to the tenth sessions twice daily. 4. high voltage pulse current: In this study, Four electrodes from proximal to distal of the knee joint will be placed with intermittent polarity. The treatment time will be 20 min for each patient. Minimal scene of electrical stimulation is perceived by the patients. Yes - There is a plan to make this available What will be shared: Sharing is done after the end of the study. The total potential data can be shared after unidentifications of individuals. When: Start the access period 6 months after publicating the results To whom: Researchers working in universities Conditions: Researchers working in universities Where to obtain: Adress: Physiotherapy section, Block 2, , Poursina hospital, Namjoo St, Rasht. Ez_kamran@yahoo.com How to obtain: A written request for data from the relevant university with the name and academic degree of the researcher Comments:
