Methods: Thirty-eight patients (15 females and 23 males;mean age: 29.87 ± 6.31, years) with biceps tendonitis were participated in this study during 2014-2015. The patients were randomly assigned into two groups: 19 patients in KT group and 19 patients in injection group. In the first group, KT was used three times for 24 hours sequentially with four-day intervals;in the second group, one dose of Methyl Prednisolone (40 mg) plus 1% lidocaine was injected in the bicipital fissure around the long head of the biceps muscle. The injections and KT therapy were performed by the same physician. The patients were investigated for VAS and ROM in the first, second, seventh and twelfth days. Results: VAS and ROM indices were significantly improved in the second and seventh days (p 0.05). Conclusion: Regarding the more immediate effect of KT on ROM and VAS and the fast restoring of the patient to normal life, it could be used as a noninvasive alternative to injection and as the first line of treatment specially in patients who need the immediate effect of treatment.展开更多

It is claimed that Kinesio tape supports injured muscles and joints and helps relieve pain by lifting the skin and allowing improved blood and lymph flow. Therefore, Kinesio Taping has become a very popular treatment for several health conditions over the last decade. Nowadays, lymphatic drainage is a new function of Kinesio taping in the field of physical therapy. This article explores the application of Kinesio tape in breast cancer-related lymphedema in order to provide a new treatment for patients with lymphedema after breast cancer surgery.展开更多

Methods: A total of 60 patients with shoulder pain after stroke in our hospital between July 2016 and March 2018 were divided into the treatment group and the control group according to the SPSS random method, 30 in each group. The treatment group was treated with kinesio taping and combined comprehensive rehabilitation therapy, while the control group received simple comprehensive rehabilitation therapy for 4 weeks. The visual analogue scale (VAS), simplified Fugl-Meyer motor function score (FMA) and range of motion (ROM) were used to evaluate the pain degree, upper limb function and shoulder joint activity of the patients before and 2 and 4 weeks after treatment.Results: There was no difference in VAS score between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05),and the VAS score of the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group after 2 weeks and 4 weeks (P<0.05).There was no difference in FMA score between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05), and the FMA scores of the treatment group were significantly higher than that of the control group after 2 weeks and 4 weeks (P<0.05).There was no difference in the shoulder flexion, extension, abduction, internal rotation and external rotation of the two groups before treatment (P>0.05), and the shoulder flexion, extension, abduction, internal rotation and external rotation of the patients in the treatment group were significantly greater than those in the control group after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment (P<0.05).Conclusion:Kinesio taping combined with rehabilitation therapy can alleviate the pain and improve the upper limb function and shoulder motion function after stoke. It worth of clinical use.展开更多
