Pressure pain tolerance measurement using Digital Pressure Algometer
Pressure pain tolerance will be measured using pressure algometer for all participants in both groups. Pressure pain tolerance will be measured in a relaxed sitting position to evaluate on quadriceps muscle. Initially, a teddy bear will be used for demonstration.
Balance assessment using HUMAC balance system
"HUMAC balance system will be calibrated, then will conduct~1. center of pressure: will instructed child to stand on platform, and maintain own body stability, and focus on the red dot in the center of screen that will move in response to body sway. after a rest, second trial will be done.~2. Eye open/ closed firm surface tests: First for Eye open firm surface test; the child will be asked to look at a target on the wall that was set at his/ her eye level, and to stare at this target for 30 seconds while standing on firm surface. After 5 seconds rest. Eye closed firm surface test; child will be asked to close his/ her eyes for 30 seconds, and conducting the same procedures for balance testing.~The researcher will documented the values resented on the screen ."
Lower limb muscular strength using Lafayette hand held dynamometer
Lower limb muscular ' Isometric quadriceps strength' will be measured for all participants in both groups. each participating child will be instructed to sit to assess the strength of knee extension, which minimize positional changes, and enhance feasibility of this clinical test. then The researcher will apply resistance to child's quadriceps to gain maximal voluntary isometric contraction with pressing the activated Lafayette hand held dynamometer padded stirrup against quadriceps belly, then recorded and documented measured value.
