Study Description
Brief Summary: Axillary web syndrome(AWS) is common complication of breast cancer surgery. Overall, AWS affects more than a half of the patient receiving axillary lymph node dissection. The symptoms of AWS include pain, limited function and range of motion. Geater risk of secondary lymphedema was found if the patient developed AWS during the first postoperative year. ESWT was used for treating myofascial pain for decades. Low energy ESWT combined with complex decongestive therapy had a benefit on shoulder joint ROM and skin thickness improvement in patients with BCRL in recently studies. Investigators wonder if ESWT can also be applied to patients with axillary web syndrome for increasing ROM and relieving pain. The aim of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic effects of low energy ESWT in patients with axillary web syndrome.
