About

Patients will be divided into 2 groups according to the random numbers table, and both groups will receive a conventional physical therapy and rehabilitation program and nutritional support. Afterwards, edema-reducing kinesiotaping will be applied to one group. The applied kinesio tape will remain on the patient for 5 days and will be taped again after 2 days without tape. In this way, taping will be done 3 times in total, once a week for 3 weeks. During this period, patients will continue their routine physical therapy program and measurements will be taken by the same researcher in the 1st week of treatment and 3 weeks later.

Kinesiology tapes have a wavy structure in line with the structure and physiological functions of the skin and have adhesive properties. The adhesive is a heat-activated acrylic. After approximately 20 minutes, the adhesive is fully activated. The tapes are porous, permeable to air and liquid, allow perspiration and dry quickly.Kinesiology tapes have a wavy structure in line with the structure and physiological functions of the skin and have adhesive properties. The adhesive is a heat-activated acrylic. After approximately 20 minutes, the adhesive is fully activated. The tapes are porous, permeable to air and liquid, allow perspiration and dry quickly. The method of application varies depending on the cutting method, application direction and region of the tape. If the anatomy of muscles, joints, ligaments and circulatory system is mastered and the correct techniques appropriate to the situation are used, the chance of success of the technique increases. Lymphatic correction technique is used to reorganize damaged lymphatic circulation. The main goals are to create a dead space in the tissue that allows circulation and to reduce the pressure on the lymph vessels at the tissue level. It directs lymph fluid to larger lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes. This effect can be explained by the elastic qualities and lifting effect of the tape. While lifting the surface skin reduces pressure and ensures lymphatic circulation, the tape provides a massage effect during active movement. Thanks to the tape, maximum contraction and relaxation of the muscles is ensured and the effectiveness of the deeper lymphatic flow is increased.

Kinesiophobia (also known as fear of movement); It is defined as an excessive and irrational fear of physical movement to avoid being harmed or injured again. It can also be expressed as an excessive, irrational fear of physical movement and activity resulting from a feeling of vulnerability due to pain. Its prevalence in chronic pain varies between 50-70%. While the existing threatening characteristics of the pain experience may vary depending on the situation and the person, avoidance behavior, which is protective in the short term, paradoxically worsens the problem in the long term. It is stated that kinesiophobia is an important factor in the transition of pain from acute to chronic stages.
