| Patient Specific Functional Scale for lower extremity functional status | Patient Specific Functional Scale (PSFS) was developed by Stratford et al 1995 as a self-report outcome measure of function that could be used in patients with varying levels of independence. The aim of PSFS is to provide clinicians with a valid, reliable, responsive and efficient outcome measure that would be easy to use and applicable to a large number of clinical presentations. Gives the patient positive re-enforcement that the intervention is effective. Can be used on a wide variety of musculoskeletal and neurological conditions | 6th week |

| Progressive resistance exercise | Other | The protocol that was applied on the members of (experimental group) are progressive resistance exercises. These passive resistance exercises included Flexion, Extension, Abduction, Adduction of hip; Flexion, Extension of knee; with minimum time in start and minimum quantity of loads, with Thera bands and sandbags,. |
