      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: In intervention group We performed ankle kinesio taping (KT) in intervention group for 24h. It was applied by KT expert by stretching the kinesio tape. Initially, a tape anchor is placed above the malleoli&#13;
of the affected lower extremity.. This anchor is applied&#13;
securely but not tightly around the extremity. Five or&#13;
six tape straps are started from the anchor in the area&#13;
of the medial ankle. They are applied around the&#13;
bottom and up the lateral side of the foot. The ends&#13;
of the first of these straps are attached to the lateral&#13;
ankle. Subsequent straps are applied across the bottom&#13;
of the foot progressively more distally and are&#13;
attached progressively more anteriorly and medially&#13;
on the ankle. Intervention 2: In control group no intervention was done and  All postural control measurements were repeated 24 hours later in control group.</i_freetext>
