Post-Fracture Rehabilitation

Post-fracture physiotherapy aims to restore mobility, strength, and function after a bone has healed. Without proper rehab, patients often face joint stiffness, muscle weakness, or delayed return to normal activity. Early intervention prevents complications and promotes full recovery.

Causes:

  • 1. Fractures from falls, trauma, or osteoporosis
  • 2. Immobilization post-casting or surgery
  • 3. Muscle atrophy due to inactivity

Symptoms:

  • 1. Stiffness in nearby joints
  • 2. Weakness and reduced flexibility
  • 3. Difficulty returning to previous activity levels

Treatment and Rehabilitation:

    • 1. Preventing Complication and Stiffness:
      Early movement and therapy help avoid joint locking and muscle contracture.
    • 2. Joint Mobilization:
      Gentle techniques to restore full motion in joints surrounding the fracture site.
    • 3. Stretching (Flexibility Exercises):
      Improves soft tissue mobility and reduces tightness from immobilization.
    • 4. Strengthening Exercises:
      Rebuilds muscle power lost during the healing process.
    • 5. Functional Training:
      Retrains the body to perform everyday tasks like walking, lifting, or climbing.
    • 6. Return to Work Training:
      Involves task-specific training to help the patient safely resume job duties.
