The Effect of Two Different Protocol in Wrist Joint Limitation After Distal Radius End Fractures

It is important for the therapist to organize a home exercise program to provide edema and pain control. The exercise program should be specific and clear to the patient. The exercise program will be taught to the patient and given as a home program

While the limb is in the agonist pattern, the patient is instructed to perform isometric contractions for 5-8 seconds against maximum resistance without movement at the limiting point. After maximum isometric contraction, the patient is instructed to actively relax.Participants in the second group will be applied 10 repetitions of isometric contractions for 8 seconds at the limitation points of the movement with the PNF techniques, the hold and relax active movement technique in the direction of wrist flexion and extension.

In thw Mobilization with movement technique; the patient is expected to perform painless ROM. After obtaining painless movement in the patients participating in the study, this application will be applied to the patient with the painless active movement technique in 10 repetitions and 2-3 sets. Rest time between sets will be 15-20 seconds. Patients will be taught self-mobilization to ensure the continuity of painless movement. Self-mobilization will be applied by the patient at home with 10 repetitions every two hours (29).
