Exercise Rehabilitation in Lower Limb Injury
Test Your Knowledge!
Question
How quickly does muscle atrophy occur after injury?
Answer
Muscle strength can decrease at the rate of 2-6% for the first 8 days of immobilisation (Muller, 1970) and up to 40% (Psatha et al, 2012) over a 6-week period after injury so it is essential in any rehabilitation programme that exercise begins as quickly as possible.
Following acute injury, there will be a reduction in specific and general physical activity due to inflammatory characteristics limiting function and on medical advice in many situations. This encourages muscle atrophy and if not addressed can lead to major changes in muscle strength, posture, balance and function.
These indirect secondary characteristics often lead to more long term issues during recovery than the direct structural components in the initial injury profile.
