简要总结
Elastic tapes, named "kinesiotapes" have a limited, but proven influence on pain reduction, improvement in muscular strength and joint function. It can be hypothetised that by using kinesiotape techniques on damaged chest wall (due to mostly rib fracture) we can improve not only analgesia, but also improve lung function tests and speed recovery.
详细描述
Chest wall injury changes the function of chest wall muscles and other structures, which in turn influences respiratory function and cause significant pain.
