How physiotherapy may help
Physiotherapy may address swelling, knee movement, quadriceps strength, balance, walking and gradual return to activity. Surgery decisions belong with an orthopaedic specialist; rehabilitation is important both for selected non-operative plans and after reconstruction.
Common rehabilitation goals
- Reduce swelling and restore comfortable knee extension
- Rebuild thigh, hip and calf strength
- Improve balance, landing control and confidence
- Progress running and sport tasks only when appropriate
What happens at a home appointment?
The physiotherapist reviews relevant history, reports and precautions, then assesses movement and function as appropriate. The plan may include education, guided exercise, mobility practice and suitable hands-on care. Progress is reviewed rather than assumed.
