Kinesio taping for pain after c-section
Part of Pain, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests if Kinesio taping, a special tape applied to the skin, can help reduce pain after a cesarean section. If you are between 18 and 45, had a c-section with a transverse incision (a horizontal cut) under spinal or epidural anesthesia, and are in good overall health, this might be for you.
