      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Single blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Supportive, Randomization description: Random assignment to groups was done through sealed numbered envelopes, and 3 letters A, B, C were used to identify each group, which were randomly numbered and placed in sealed envelopes inside the box. Envelope A was the stretching exercises group with the kinesio taping (n=10), Envelope B was stretching exercises (n=10), and Envelope C was the control group. Thus, the participants were divided into three groups, Blinding description: Blinding of subjects will be done using sealed envelopes labeled A, B, and C, where A represents the stretching exercises group with kinesiotherapy, B represents the stretching exercises group, and C represents the control group. Subjects in one group will not be informed of the group in which the other subjects are placed.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group 1: 2 sessions of kinesio taping 2 days apart, with the patient extending their legs forward, knees straight, ankles in a plantar flexion position, and stretching the tibialis anterior muscle. Kinesio taping in the shape of an (I) is applied from the medial side of the foot to the fibula with light tension to the origin of the tibialis anterior muscle, and then stretching exercises will be performed. Both kinesio taping and stretching exercises will target the anterior calf muscles. Intervention 2: Second intervention group: Perform 2 sessions of static stretching exercises two days apart after training with the aim of stretching the ankle overturning muscles for a total of 240 seconds (Peroneus longus muscle stretch: The participant sits on a chair and stretches the muscles in a neutral ankle position. When the foot is on the floor and the knee joint is in a 90-degree flexion position, the ankle is slowly moved inward. At this time, the outer edge of the foot is in contact with the ground. Stretching of the brevis and peroneus muscles: The participant, still sitting on a chair, stretches the muscles in a plantar flexion position of the ankle. The leg that is not being stretched is on the floor, the other leg that is being stretched is lifted and placed on the knee. Then, the subject stretches his ankle inward and forward with the help of his hands and holds it.) Stretching of the ankle dorsiflexor muscles for 120 seconds (Tibialis muscle stretch Anterior: The participant sits on a chair, bends the knee joint towards the back of the thigh, and pulls the ankle back, with only the toes in contact with the floor. At the same time, the person shifts their body weight forward and brings the ankle further back. Intervention 3: Control group: The subjects in this group will not do any exercise and will simply carry out their daily activities.</i_freetext>
