EFFECTS OF PHYSIOTHERAPY IN GERIATRIC PATIENT WITH DISTAL RADIUS FRACTURE: A CASE REPORT

Distal end radius fracture is said to the most common as well as more frequent fracture seen in community-dwelling individuals. Fracture distal end radius can lead to malunion, non-union, deformity ultimately leading to reduce the functional capacity of an individual. Hand functions are primarily affected in distal radial fracture. The patient was an old lady of 75 years who suffered a comminuted fracture distal end radius right side. She underwent surgery 6 days after the injury with open reduction and internal fixation. Three weeks after the surgery physiotherapy was started to increase range of motion, muscle strength and to reduce pain. Rehabilitation started at the rate of one session a day, six days a week. Rehabilitation activities include exercises to improve local circulation and relief pain, to restore normal range of motion, to improve ROM, to improve strength.
