Occupational Physiotherapy FAQ: Post-orthopaedic surgery treatment
After any orthopaedic surgery it is important to regain normal everyday
function as quickly as possible. This varies with the individual, some may need to return to sport at a high level, others may need to
achieve independent living. To achieve any goal, the following issues must be addressed:
- Reducing pain
- Restoring full movement
- Regaining strength and balance
- Correction of any gait or posture concerns
- Correct exercise programme for the individual
It is vital that the patient is assessed individually to understand their needs and provide the right rehabilitation programme.
We will keep in communication with the surgeon to ensure optimal care.
