Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of magnetic field application used in the treatment of patellofemoral pain.

Detailed description

The aim of this randomized controlled study is to examine the effect of magnetic field application used in the treatment of patellofemoral pain. The main question it aims to answer is; Is magnetic field therapy applied in addition to conventional treatment effective in reducing pain in individuals with Patellofemoral pain syndrome?

Conditions

• Pain, Knee

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Magnetic field application	The applicator (Size: 15x15 cm) has placed 1-3 cm above the skin surface at the painful area. During the treatment, treatment has applied with ready-made protocols included in the device.
OTHER	Conventional treatment	Within the scope of conventional treatment, hotpack application, transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TENS), interferential current and ultrasound treatment modalities will be applied. In addition, strengthening exercises will be applied to the muscles around the hip and knee and stretching exercises will be applied to the short muscle groups.
