Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of Kinesio taping on myofascial pain syndrome post neck dissection surgery.

Conditions

Myofascial Pain Syndrome

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• assessing and quantifying pain exhibited by the patients

  Visual analogue scale (VAS): The Visual analogue Scale (VAS) has been in use for the measurement of intangible quantities such as pain, quality of life and anxiety since the 1920s. It consists of a line usually 100 mm in length, with anchor descriptors such as (in the pain context) "no pain" and "worst pain imaginable". The patient makes a mark reflecting his or her perception, and the distance from the left endpoint to the mark is measured, in mm. The VAS was initially used in psychology for the measurement of mood disorders, and was used for the measurement of pain from the mid-1960s The VAS will be used for assessing and quantifying pain exhibited by the patients through a 0-10 scale. Each subject twill be informed to mark the line according to the pain intensity experienced at that particular time where 0 means no pain and 10 means worst conceivable pain

Study Arms (2)

Group A (Kinesio taping group)(Experimental group):

EXPERIMENTAL

This group includes 30 patients who will receive Kinesiotaping, in additional to traditional treatment (ROM exercises, stretching exercises, and Deep friction message) 3 times per week for one month.

Device: Kinesiotaping; Behavioral: traditional therapy intervention

Group B (control group)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This group includes 30 patients who will receive traditional treatment only (ROM exercises, stretching exercises, and Deep friction message) 3 times per week for 1 month.

Behavioral: traditional therapy intervention

Interventions

Kinesiotaping DEVICE

The tape is waterproof, porous, and adhesive. The width is 5 cm and thickness of 0.5 mm will be used in this study. This tape is with elastic core wrapped within cotton and capable of stretching up to 140-150%, applies heat-sensitive acrylic adhesive to avoid risk of latex allergy .The tape without medicinal properties is water resistant and can remain on the skin for 3 to 5 days. It will be applied two times per week for one month

Group A (Kinesio taping group)(Experimental group):

traditional therapy intervention BEHAVIORAL

traditional treatment (ROM exercises, stretching exercises, and Deep friction message) 3 times per week for one month.

Group A (Kinesio taping group)(Experimental group):; Group B (control group)
