Post Fracture Rehabilitation
Post Fracture Treatment in Lahore
There are different types of fractures i.e. simple, complex, displaced, and un-displaced. The management of these fractures start with fixation either by non-surgically (casting) or by surgical procedures (plating, screwing, nailing, implants etc) followed by a rehabilitation training plan. It means every patient should undergo a complete rehabilitation exercise program just after the fracture fixation by a competent physiotherapist.
It was believed in the past that after the musculoskeletal surgery, some or few exercises can recover the patients completely without following the complete rehabilitation plan. The adverse effect was lack of complete recovery, stiff joints, weak muscles, future risks of re-fracture or severe pain. Now, in the present era, it is advisable by the competent orthopedic surgeons to must follow a complete rehabilitation plan by physiotherapist for best outcomes of surgery and early functional recovery.
The rehabilitation plan will be usually divided into 3 phases.
