Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of elastic therapeutic tape combined with traditional Chinese medicine tendon manipulation on relieving upper limb swelling after shoulder fracture surgery.Methods A total of 78 patients with upper limb swelling after shoulder fracture surgery admitted to Nanchang Hongdu Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from June 2020 to December 2022 were included in the study.They were randomly divided into experimental group(elastic therapeutic tape with traditional Chi-nese medicine tendon manipulation),control group Ⅰ(elastic therapeutic tape)and control group Ⅱ(absolute bed rest without any treat-ment)by using random number table method.There were 26 cases in each group.After 2 weeks,the three groups were evaluated for clinical efficacy,visual analogue pain score(VAS),and symptom remission rate.Results After treatment,the total effective rate of 100.00％(26/26)in experimental group was higher than that of control group Ⅰ(84.62％,22/26)and control group Ⅱ(61.54％,16/26)(P＜0.05).VAS scores of test group were lower than those of control group Ⅰ and control Ⅱ(P＜0.05).The excellent symptom relief effect of experimental group was 61.54％(16/26),which was higher than 30.77％(8/26)of control group Ⅰ and 7.69％(2/26)of control group Ⅱ(P＜0.05).Conclusion The elastic therapeutic tape combined with the traditional Chinese medicine tendon manipulation can effec-tively improve the upper limb swelling after shoulder fracture surgery,and reduce the pain,can promote the relief of related symptoms,and has accurate application value.
