A Modern View at the Use of Physical Rehabilitation in Inflammatory Lesions of the Bones of the Shin

Abstract

Gunshot wounds of the lower extremities are of great interest not only for military doctors, but also for rehabilitologists because of the distinctive features of the pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of such victims. The Purpose of the study is to determine the features of compiling a physical rehabilitation program for patients who suffered from a gunshot injury to the lower extremities. Research Results. Physical rehabilitation of people with gunshot fractures is an integral part of rehabilitation treatment. It is the combination of rationally selected means of physical rehabilitation, taking into account the individual characteristics of each patient, that allows gradually, in due time, to restore the lost functions and the level of physical performance in people with the specified pathology. The most important tasks of physical rehabilitation of patients with inflammatory lesions of the lower extremities are prevention and elimination of complications, return to normal amount of motor activity. The first link in the construction of a rehabilitation program is to consult a patient with a physician who, based on clinical research methods, identifies the patient’s ability to endure physical activity and identifies major caveats or contraindications to movement. A very important component of the rehabilitation of patients with injuries to the lower extremities, in particular the bones of the lower leg are the exercises that help to strengthen the muscles involved in the formation of the correct walking stereotype from the first days after surgery. We consider the prospects for further research in the implementation of the physical rehabilitation program at clinical bases of the appropriate profile, as well as in determining the appropriateness of the proposed interventions in the process of physical rehabilitation of people with gunshot wounds of the lower extremities.
