【 摘 要 】

Background & Objective: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a crippling disease characterized by joint pains and joint stiffness. Kinesiotaping (KT) has been advocated to reduce local pressure and increase circulation, resulting in decreased pain in various conditions. We aimed to evaluate the acute effect of KT on pain, function, range of motion (ROM) and grip strength parameters in patients with rheumatoid hand.
