Total hip replacement requires a structured exercise routine to regain strength, mobility, and stability. Key exercises focus on a gentle range of motion, muscle strengthening, and balance to support recovery. Always follow medical advice and progress gradually to ensure safe rehabilitation. Introduction: The pelvis, which is composed of the ischium, pubis, and ilium, and the…
Multiple System Atrophy: What is it? Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare neurological illness that causes some brain regions to degenerate. Over time, this impairs the capacities and functioning of specific brain regions. This sickness is eventually dangerous. MSA is a unique word that combines the characteristics of three previous disorder designations. The conditions…
Ankle Plantar Flexion Ankle plantar flexion is the movement of pointing the toes downward, away from the body, as in pressing a gas pedal. It engages muscles like the gastrocnemius, soleus, and plantaris, playing a key role in activities like walking, running, and jumping. What are plantar and dorsi flexion of the ankle? Two basic…
Cervical Flexion Cervical flexion is the movement of the neck where the chin moves toward the chest, reducing the angle between the head and the neck. It involves the contraction of the neck’s anterior muscles, primarily the sternocleidomastoid and scalene muscles. This motion is essential for daily activities like looking down and maintaining neck mobility….
Introduction The calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) is a strong, fibrous band located on the lateral side of the ankle. It connects the fibula to the calcaneus (heel bone) and provides stability by preventing excessive inversion of the foot. It is commonly injured in ankle sprains, particularly in combination with the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL). Like the…

Proper rehabilitation exercises can help restore strength, flexibility, and stability, promoting faster recovery and reducing the risk of future injuries. Following a sprain injury, performing gradual, planned Exercises For Ankle Sprain…
Introduction The posterior longitudinal ligament (PLL) is a strong, fibrous band that runs along the back (posterior) of the vertebral bodies inside the spinal canal. It extends from the cervical spine to the sacrum, providing support and stability to the spine while preventing excessive spinal flexion. The PLL also helps protect the spinal cord and nerves….
