Abstract

Objective: The patients with loss of cervical lordosis have weakened neck extensors. This study aimed to investigate the effect of Kinesio taping, applied to the cervical extensors, on neck pain and disability in patients with loss of cervical lordosis.
Methods: A total of 111 patients with neck pain due to loss of cervical lordosis completed the study (54 Kinesio tape group, 57 control group). All patients were given paracetamol 1500 mg/day for four days. Additionally, the Kinesio tape group received one session of Kinesio taping treatment. Neck pain intensity was assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale, and neck disability was evaluated using the Neck Disability Index. The measurement points were baseline and day 4.
Results: Visual Analogue Scale and Neck Disability Index scores were similar at baseline. Statistically significant improvements in the levels of pain and disability were observed in both groups; however, there was further change in the Kinesio tape group (p<0.001).
Conclusions: Kinesio taping is effective in achieving improvement of significant pain and neck disability symptoms related to loss of cervical lordosis.

Abstract

Amaç: Servikal lordoz kaybı olan hastaların boyun ekstansör kaslarında zayıflama olmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, servikal lordoz kaybı olan hastalarda servikal ekstansör kaslarına uygulanan Kinesio bantlamanın hastaların boyun ağrısı ve sakatlık üzerine etkisini araştırmaktır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Servikal lordozda kaybı olan toplam 111 hasta çalışmayı tamamladı (54 hasta Kinesio bant grubu, 57 hasta kontrol grubu). Tüm hastalara dört gün boyunca 1500 mg/gün parasetamol tablet verildi. Ek olarak, Kinesio bant grubuna bir seans Kinesio bantlama tedavisi uygulandı. Hastaların boyun ağrısı şiddeti Görsel Analog Skala, boyun sakatlığı şiddeti ise Boyun Özür İndeksi kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Hastaların değerlendirmeleri tedavinin başlangıç günü ve 4. gün yapıldı.
Bulgular: Tedavi öncesi hastaların Görsel Analog Skala ve Boyun Özür İndeksi skorları benzerdi. Tedavi sonrası her iki grupta boyun ağrısı ve sakatlık düzeyi skorlarında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı iyileşmeler gözlendi. Bununla birlikte Kinesio bant grubundaki iyileşmenin daha anlamlı olduğu gözlendi (p<0.001).
Sonuç: Kinezyo bantlama, servikal lordoz kaybıyla ilişkili boyun ağrısı ve boyun sakatlığı iyileştirilmesinde etkili bir tedavidir.
