Brief Summary:
120 patients with Kellgren-Lawrence grade 2-3 knee osteoarthritis will be randomized into four groups: Control group, Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) (once a week for 3 sessions), Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) (twice a week for 8 sessions), and Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF) (twice a week for 8 sessions), with 30 patients in each group. All participants will be instructed in a daily exercise program, including knee joint range of motion, stretching, and strengthening exercises (3×10 repetitions). Outcome measures, including the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), Short Form-36 (SF-36), and Timed Up \& Go (TUG) test, will be assessed at baseline after treatment and at 3rd month.
