Clinical Trial Summary

PURPOSE: The study aims to compare study between Botulinum toxin-A injection and shock waves therapy on hypertrophic scars in hand-burned children. BACKGROUND: Burn injuries can cause significant physical and psychological distress, especially when they result in hypertrophic scarring. In children, who are particularly vulnerable to these injuries, it is important to accurately assess the severity of these scars and their impact on functionality. HYPOTHESES: There is no significant difference between the combined effect of the traditional physical therapy program with botulinum toxin-A injection and the traditional physical therapy program with shock waves therapy on improving wrist extension, ulnar deviation, radial deviation, hand grip strength, and severity of the scar on hypertrophic scars in hand-burned children.
