Post-Operative Kinesio Taping Impact on Pain in Thoracotomy vs Thoracoscopy

The project is of a comparative nature. It seeks to study pain reduction following two forms of chest surgery and compare results between both procedures. It will use kinesio taping as the studied pain reducer. It will involve 4 study groups, 2 per surgical procedure, and among those 2 main groups, 2 subgroups each where 1 has kinesio taping and the other doesn't. With this, the project hopes to offer new forms of pain reduction that are more cost effective and are associated with less adverse effects. Furthermore it would decrease pain killer intake which is a contemporary challenge of medicine.
