Hey guys,
Totally confused.. plz help...
patient is 32yr/M, had a Road traffic accident in march '06.. had a tibial lower 1/3 rd oblique fracture.. shd've been treated with ORIF but som orthopaedic treated it with plaster cast.. this lead to malunion.. the cast was applied for 6 months...
now the patient has restricted range, tight quadriceps, immobile patella, Bow leg developing, limb length discrepancy...
I've given him a raise to equal the length of both legs.. a lateral raise to slow down the varus leg developing...
Still the range is restricted at 100.. tight quads limit flexion..
Stretching is continuing.. tryin to mobilize patella... wat more do i do..
It is not feasible for patient to re fracture and go through the agony again...
PLZ HELP>>>
