Almost 75% of post-operative surgery patients experience pain complaints. Pain management is a treatment procedure for pain management, which includes both pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches. Finger graps technique involves graps the fingers of the hand for a relatively short period. The sensation experienced during this technique provides comfort and relaxation, thereby alleviating mental and physical stress, leading to an increase in pain tolerance.

Meanwhile, Mr. S's pain scale before the finger graps therapy was 5 (Moderate Pain), and after the therapy, the pain scale reduced to 2 (Mild Pain), indicating that finger graps therapy can reduce the pain scale in patients after appendectomy surgery.
