Medical Rehabilitation Impact Towards Dynamic Balance in Lateral Ankle Sprain Patients

Background: Lateral ankle sprain (LAS) is one of the most prevalent and recurring injuries occurring during physical activities, especially sports. The resulting morbidity forces individuals to limit or change their activities. Medical rehabilitation can prevent recurrent by restoring dynamic balance deficits. Previous studies have shown contradictory results. We investigated effect medical on in patients with LAS.Methods: This was a numerical, analytical study prospective cohort design. Two groups, consisting 13 LAS subjects each, were purposively chosen. Only former participated three sessions program. modified star excursion test performed initially weeks later. Normalized composite scores recorded Microsoft Excel statistically analyzed using SPSS 24 5% significance level.Results: commonly found males (57.69%), an average age 20.62 ± 6.24 years old, dominant foot side (57.69%). Both groups matched for (p = 0.292), sex 0.247), injured 0.193). group presented greater increase normalized score than control (∆ 3.10 4.71 vs. 2.04 7.05, p 0.654).Conclusion: Dynamic increased more group, but difference insignificant. should not be mandatory optional limited resource access. Nevertheless, continued other important aspects treatment.
