Dear List members,
I would like to get your input regarding a patient who has severe knee
flexion contracture bilaterally as a result of a immobilisation in POP
after a bilateral tibia #.The patient is scared of doing a
surgery(Hamstring release).He wants me to treat him conservatively.I
have tried out knee mobilisations and some cryotherapy as he was
complaning of severe pain.The patient was told to lie prone as there was
a associated contracture of the hip flexors.
Please give your suggestions.
