- Abstract
Background: Injury is a structural malfunction or accident to the body brought on by too much physical strain, especially when it affects the muscles and joints and prevents them from working properly. Pain, swelling, muscular weakness, and a restricted range of motion in the damaged area are all indications of joint injury. One of the most common injury is ankle sprains. Meanwhile, kinesiotape is an elastic band in the form of a plaster which is commonly used to treat injuries and other disorders, one of which is ankle sprains. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of kinesiotape in treating ankle sprains. Method: Article search using seven databases (CINAHL, MEDLINE, SCOPUS, PUBMED, University of Cambridge, and PEDro and SPORTDiscus and Web Science) with publication dates from 1970 to 2022. Search quality of the studies using PEDro scale. Result: According to the findings of the systematic review, 1 out of 5 studies that made it past the screening stage and were included in the analysis provided clinical evidence that Kinesiotape can affect how quickly ankle sprains heal. While 4 from 5 articles, proved otherwise. Conclusion: This also leads to the conclusion that the majority of studies offer clinical proof that kinesiotape has no appreciable impact on ankle sprains.
