How to Rehabilitate After Removing a Cast

Rehabilitation exercises after removing the plaster mainly include muscle strength training and joint mobility training. In order to prevent muscle atrophy and joint stiffness and adhesion caused by long-term braking.
1. Muscle strength training: including local joint static diastolic and resistance joint flexion and extension activities. The former can accelerate blood circulation and promote swelling and tissue repair; the latter assists the elastic band to complete the joint movement, which is conducive to the recovery of muscle strength and joint stability as soon as possible.
2. Joint mobility training: mainly passive and active joint flexion and extension exercises can prevent joint stiffness and restore joint function and range of motion.
During the training process, pay attention to the gradual and orderly progress, not strenuous exercise, if there is obvious pain, and after rest does not relieve, need to stop exercise and timely consult a doctor. It is recommended to exercise under the guidance of a doctor, so as not to cause secondary injuries due to blind exercise on one’s own.
