Brief Summary: The study will be Randomized controlled trail Subject diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis meeting predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria will be divided into two groups

Pre assessment will be done using pain ROM function foot arches and knee alignment as subjective measurement through KOOS questionnaire goniometer 2D frontal plane projection Berkemann foot prints using ink and paper 30s chair stand test nine step stair climb40m fast paced walk testGlobal rating of change score respectively One group will be treated with hip abductor strengthening exercise along with conventional exercises and second group will be treated with intrinsic foot muscle strengthening exercise along with conventional exercises Post treatment values recorded after the sessionAfter data collection from defined study settingdata will be entered and analyzed at Riphah International UniversityLahore
Detailed Description: Knee osteoarthritis OA is a leading cause of joint pain1 and disability2 in middle- and older-aged individuals and is one of the most commonly managed conditions in primary care3 Recent incidence rates suggest around 6 of people aged over 45 years develop knee symptoms Knee OA symptoms and radiographic change that worsen over time can lead to costly surgical intervention

Compressive forces on the knee caused by knee adduction moment on the medial compartment of the joint are associated with the severity of the disease and intensity of pain In addition decreased strength of the quadriceps is one of the contributing factors for the onset of the disease

short foot exercises SFE have shown to be effective using the IFM and excluding the EFM found that SFE contracted the intrinsic muscles of the foot to increase the inner arch of the foot thereby shortening the longitudinal archPronated foot is deeply related to the medial longitudinal arch MLA where the presence of a pronated foot consequently leads to a decrease in the MLA
