Brief Summary:
Axillary web syndrome (AWS) is a complication associated with breast cancer surgery, characterized by pain, functional limitation of the shoulder and decreased quality of life. There are several physical treatment options to reduce pain and improve the functionality of the upper limb in women with AWS. This study evaluates the effectiveness of an early rehabilitation approach to prevent axillary web syndrome consisting in functional and proprioceptive re-education, manual lymphatic drainage and kinesio taping after breast cancer surgery.
Detailed Description:
Tissue flossing for the upper limb involves wrapping a floss band, typically made of elastic material, around the targeted area to provide compression and create a shearing effect on the tissue. This technique is utilized to enhance mobility, reduce pain, and improve recovery. The procedure begins by wrapping the band around the upper limb, starting from the distal part of the limb and moving proximally, ensuring a snug but not overly tight application that allows for some movement. The band is usually left in place for approximately 2-3 minutes. Physiologically, Tissue flossing for the upper limb, often referred to as compression wrapping, plays a significant role in enhancing physiological functions by improving joint mobility and reducing pain. This technique involves tightly wrapping a stretchable band around a muscle or joint to create compression. The compression temporarily restricts blood flow, which, upon release, results in a rush of blood back to the tissues. This process enhances circulation, promoting nutrient delivery and waste removal from the affected area.
