OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to compare the efficacy of steroid injection and kinesio taping (KT) in the treatment of lateral epicondylitis.
DESIGN: A total number of 84 patients were randomized into three groups. Group 1 was given steroid injection, group 2 received KT, and group 3 received both. Pain was measured using a visual analog scale, functional status was measured using a quick form of the Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire, pain-free grip strength was measured using a dynamometer, and the pressure pain threshold was measured using an algometer. All evaluations were performed before treatment and at the third and twelfth weeks after the treatment.
RESULTS: Twenty-eight patients were included in each group. A statistically significant difference was found between the pretreatment and posttreatment evaluations of all groups in the third and twelfth weeks after treatment. When group 1 and group 2 were compared, there was a significant difference only in pain-free grip strength measured in the twelfth week. The results of treatment in group 3 patients were significantly better in almost all evaluation parameters compared with the other groups.
CONCLUSION: In the treatment of lateral epicondylitis, KT alone was found to be as effective as steroid injection alone. However, co-administration of steroid injection and KT is more effective compared with each treatment alone.
