Late rehabilitation training for brachial plexus injury mainly uses flexion and extension as well as rotation of the shoulder, elbow and wrist joints for functional exercises.
Patients with brachial plexus injuries are often limited in active activities, so passive activities should be strengthened at this time. The mobility of the joints can be maintained, as well as the contraction and pulling of the muscles, thus creating stimulation of the muscles for the recovery of the brachial plexus. The patient’s wrist, elbow, and shoulder joints can be moved to promote muscle contraction and diastole through flexion and extension of the joints.
Isometric muscle contraction exercises can also be performed in conjunction with the patient’s active movement.
The exercise can improve the muscle tone and improve the stiffness, ankylosis and contracture of the joints. Through active functional rehabilitation training, the mobility of the joints can be effectively improved.
It is recommended that patients carry out rehabilitation training under the guidance of a doctor, so as not to cause injuries to the organism due to incorrect methods.
