Postoperative Rehabilitation Protocols

Postoperative rehabilitation protocols are structured plans designed to help patients recover effectively after surgery. They typically involve a series of phases, starting with gentle movements to reduce stiffness, followed by strengthening exercises, and eventually, activities that restore normal function. The goal is to promote healing, reduce pain, prevent complications, and gradually return the patient to daily activities or sports. Each phase is tailored to the specific surgery and individual progress, often guided by healthcare professionals to ensure safe and optimal recovery. Consistency and patience are key to achieving the best outcomes.
