      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Triple blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Single, Purpose: Treatment, Other design features: It is Randomized Control Trails in Which We Give Intervention To Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome Patients By Giving 2 Types of Treatment, Randomization description: Purposive Sampling Technique will be used. 
Simple and individual method of Randomization. 
Randomization tools include randomly allocate patients in 2 groups 
(Group 1 with Intervention one, which is Weight bearing with Kinesio Taping) 
(Group 2 with Intervention two, which is Weight bearing Exercises), Blinding description: Patients are blinded in our study because we give intervention to PFPS patients with two different  treatment's so we blind our patients to check better outcomes of combined approach or single approach. we blind assessor and data analyzer to prevent from biasness in study.</study_design>
      <phase>1-2</phase>
      <hc_freetext>Patellfemoral pain syndrome is commonly occur in athletes and sports man, after the young age age. Patient experiencing anterior knee pain and retro patellar pain with decreased range of motion of knee joint. It also occur in knee osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, chondromalacia patella..</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group 1: Weight bearing Exercises will performed on that group. Intervention 2: Intervention group 2: Weight bearing exercises with Kinesio Taping will be applied.</i_freetext>
