title: Lower limb taping.
abstract: This article, the final in this series, describes taping techniques for common lower limb problems. Taping can be used to correct abnormal biomechanics (e.g. patellofemoral pain), prevent recurrent injury (e.g. ankle taping for instability), offload the injured tissue (e.g. acute ankle sprain) or provide proprioception awareness (e.g. Achilles tendonitis).
