First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 30 times

Summary

This study looks at whether adding kinesio tape to standard therapy can reduce pain, swelling, and improve quality of life for women who have had breast or trunk swelling for more than 6 months after breast cancer treatment. About 128 women will be randomly assigned to receive either standard care alone or standard care plus kinesio taping for 4 weeks, then followed for 6 months. The goal is to see if the tape provides extra relief beyond usual treatment.
