Taping techniques for ulnar nerve elbow pain
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares two taping methods to see which works better for people with ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow. It will test whether Kinesio taping can help relieve symptoms like tingling in the ring and pinky fingers, hand weakness, elbow pain, or nighttime discomfort.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests if a special tape placed on the arm can help reduce pain and improve symptoms in people with cubital tunnel syndrome. It may be a good option if you have arm pain and have not had surgery or certain injections recently.
This study compares two treatments for cubital tunnel syndrome, a condition where the ulnar nerve in the elbow is compressed, causing numbness, tingling, or weakness in the hand. One treatment is surgery to relieve pressure on the nerve, and the other is a nonsurgical approach using a splint. The goal is to see which works better for people with mild-to-moderate symptoms.
This study compares two ways of applying kinesiotape (a stretchy tape placed on the skin) to see which works better for carpal tunnel syndrome, a condition that causes numbness, tingling, and pain in the hand. If you have mild to moderate symptoms, this trial might help you find a non-surgical way to feel better.
This study tests whether taping therapy (kinesiotaping) or a mud pack treatment (peloidotherapy) can help reduce pain and improve function for people with mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. It may be an option if you want non-surgical, drug-free relief.
This study tests whether a special elastic tape (Kinesio tape) placed on the forearm can help relieve pain and symptoms caused by lacertus syndrome, a condition where a tissue band presses on a nerve. If you qualify, you will apply the tape at home following a treatment plan, and the researchers will see if it helps.
This study tests whether a special tape placed on the forearm can reduce pain and improve recovery after a workout. It involves healthy young adults who exercise regularly.
