Rehabilitation Exercises Accompanying Ultrasound in the Rehabilitation of the Elbow Joint for Patients with Tendinitis, Aged (30-40) Men

Abstract

The elbow joint is one of the important and mobile joints in a way that allows it to perform its functions. The injury occurs when the joint tendon and arm muscles are subjected to repeated partial ruptures as a result of excessive and repetitive work, as well as for the patient not being subjected to correct rehabilitation programs and only rest. From here, the researchers decided to study this problem by preparing rehabilitation exercises accompanying ultrasound and knowing their impact on the rehabilitation of the elbow joint. The sample included male patients aged (30-40) years, and the tests were determined, which included testing the range of motion of the elbow joint from the flexion position and the rotation outward position, the muscular strength test for the working muscles of the forearm and upper arm, and the visual symmetry test from the flexion position. The two researchers concluded that the prepared program contributed to improving the research variables as well as the kinematic ranges of the elbow joint. It was recommended that the prepared program should be generalized in physiotherapy centers.
