The second group will consist of patients who received a total of 6 sessions of kinesiotaping twice a week along with a home exercise program. Patients who were given only a home exercise program will be included in the third group. "Patients will be evaluated in detail in terms of clinical examination and outcomes three weeks after the end of treatment and again at three months.
