OBJECTIVE: This study compared kinesiologic taping (KT) with conventional elastic adhesive bandaging in managing postoperative morbidity following open reduction and internal fixation.
STUDY DESIGN: In this prospective, randomized controlled trial conducted at KLE Dr Prabhakar Kore Hospital, 26 patients with unilateral mandibular fractures were allocated into two groups: Group 1 received an elastic adhesive bandage (n = 13) and Group 2 used KT (n = 13). Pain (Visual Analog Scale), facial swelling (standardized linear measurements), and maximum interincisal distance were recorded at baseline and on postoperative Days 2 and 5. Data were analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA and independent t tests (p < .05).
RESULTS: The KT group showed significantly lower pain scores and reduced facial edema at Days 2 and 5 compared with controls (P < .05). Trismus improved in both groups without significant intergroup differences. No adverse effects were observed.
CONCLUSIONS: KT is a safe and effective adjunct for reducing early postoperative pain and edema after mandibular fracture fixation.
