Filter by:Every year more than 50 million people worldwide are injured due to RTAs which in turn makes it one of the leading causes of disability. During automobile collisions, the lower limbs are the most commonly injured region of the human body. Ankle injuries can be particularly long-lasting, resulting in excessive medical costs, inability to work, and serious psychological distress. Physiotherapists often contribute to the rehabilitation of ankle fractures, which typically starts soon after the period of immobilization. Joint mobilization led to increased ankle movement, improved gait patterns, reduced pain and the number of treatment sessions required, and hastened return to activities when compared with the usual rest, ice, compression, and elevation protocol.
