1. Ankle pump exercises: That is, the patient performs ankle plantar flexion (the toes and the instep are hooked upward) and dorsiflexion (the toes and the instep are hooked downward) exercises. It is very helpful to prevent aging
Phlebitis of the gastrocnemius venous plexus and deep vein thrombosis of the lower limbs after surgery in young adults are very important. The method is as follows: When the patient lies in bed and straightens both lower limbs, the ankles should be naturally relaxed first, and then do back extension. The back extension must be maintained to the maximum limit for two seconds. Then start to do plantar flexion from the maximum dorsiflexion state, and the plantar flexion should be reached to the maximum for two seconds, circle around once, and so on. The patient can continue to perform plantar flexion and dorsiflexion exercises while lying in bed watching TV, reading books or newspapers, and talking with family members.
2. Quadriceps strength exercises:?
Quadriceps contraction and relaxation exercises: Quadriceps contraction and relaxation exercises while lying in bed: The patient lies in bed , straighten your legs naturally, and repeatedly contract the thigh muscles of your lower limbs for 5 seconds and then relax for 2 seconds. Do as much as possible without increasing pain. ?
3. Straight leg raising exercise: ?
Lift the affected limb completely straight, forming an angle of 15° with the bed surface. Then stay in this position until you can no longer maintain it. Rest your legs on the bed for a moment and continue with the second straight leg raise exercise. Side leg raising and rear leg raising exercises, 20 times/group, 3-4 groups/day, rest for 30 seconds between groups.
4. Quiet squatting practice method:?
The posture is the same as the horse riding crotch movement in Chinese martial arts or becomes a stance movement. The patient's legs are spread apart, the distance between the feet is slightly wider than the shoulders, the body remains upright and cannot lean forward, the toes and knee joints are forward, and no "inside and outside" is allowed. At this time, the knees begin to bend and squat. The bending angle of both knees varies according to the patient's physical condition and muscle strength. If the patient is in good physical condition and has good thigh muscle strength, the squatting angle can reach 90° with the knees bent. If the patient is in poor health and has weak thigh muscles, a slight bending of both knees is sufficient. This is a higher semi-squat position, which saves the patient effort. , as the muscle strength increases after the exercise, increase the angle of knee flexion to the maximum pain-free angle (not exceeding 90°), 2 minutes to 5 minutes/time, 5 seconds apart, 5-10 consecutive times/group. 2-3 groups/day.
5. Extension exercises (as far apart as possible from flexion exercises!)?
It is normal to feel stretch and slight pain in the muscles and posterior joint capsule during extension exercises and should not be tolerated. The contracted muscles should be completely relaxed, otherwise they will be ineffective. ?The weight of the load used in the exercise should not be too large, and the affected knee should be dared to relax. It should be continued for 30 minutes to the limit, and it is appropriate to have an obvious pulling feeling. Do not take a break during the exercise, otherwise the effect will be affected. ?
1. Sit and extend your knees: Sit with your feet elevated and place weights above the knee joints. Completely relax your muscles and hold for 30 minutes. 30 minutes/time, 1-2 times/day. See Appendix 1—Figure 14. 2. Prone suspension: (the extension angle is obviously limited) lie prone, hang below the knees outside the bed, and put weights on the ankle joints. See Appendix 1—Figure 15. The requirements are the same as above. 3. Active drafting: See Appendix 1—Figures 16 and 20. Hold at the limit for 10 seconds and relax for 5 seconds. 20-30 times/group, 1-2 groups/day.
