Does pt for the break up of scar tissue on badly sprained ankle and fibula hurt?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Scar tissue therapy: There are a variety of techniques therapists use for breaking apart scarring. Typically, a therapist will work a little beyond your comfort zone every session to achieve maximum benefits. Ask them to give you exercises to do on your own to assist in removing scar tissue and improve your recovery!
