- Abstract
Purpose: To compare exercise and exercise with kinesio taping on pain, fatigue and balance in women with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). Methods: Twenty two patients with FMS were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided randomly into the two groups, as Exercise group (Group1, n=10, age=40.8±7.5 years) and Exercise+Kinesio taping (Group2, n=12, age=44.5±10.1 years). Treatment was applied during 2 days in a week for 6 weeks. Before (BT) and after the treatment (AT), pain and fatigue with Visual Analog Scales, balance with One-Legged Balance Test (s) while eyes open and closed were evaluated. Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney U tests were used for analysis. Results: The ages of groups were similar (p<0.05). BT and AT, pain (BT:7.1(2.0;9.5); AT:2.5(0.0;8.5)) and fatigue (BT:7.5(6.0;10.0); AT:4.4(1.0;7.0)) decline, right leg balance with eyes closed (BT:10.3(1.2;26.8); AT:14.5(2.9;30.0)) increase in Group1 were found (p<0.05). No difference was observed in right (BT:24.9(10.9;30.0); AT:27.7(9.6;30.0)) and left (BT:30.0(12.0-30.0); AT:30.0(2.8;30.0)) leg balance with eyes open, left leg balance with eyes closed (BT: 7.2(1.1;30.0); AT:9.5(1.2;30.0)), (p<0.05). In Group 2, the pain (BT:6.7(3.5;10.0); AT:1.7(0.0;8.2)) and fatigue (BT:5.9(0.5;10.0); AT:3.3(0.0;8.5)) decrease, left leg balance with eyes open (BT:15.0(2.3;30.0); AT:30.0(10.9;30.0)), right (BT:10.0(1.6;30.0); AT:15.5(3.8;30.0)) and left (BT:6.0(1.6;30.0); AT:9.1(3.0;30.0)) leg balance with eyes closed increase were shown (p<0.05). No difference was observed in right leg balance with eyes open (BT:22.5(3.8;30.0); AT:30.0 (11.4;30.0)), (p<0.05). Between group comparisons, no difference was detected for any parameters (p<0.05). Conclusion: Exercise and exercise in addition to kinesio taping decreased pain and fatigue in women with FMS. Exercise with kinesio taping may be effective in improving balance.
