A member asked:
I need exercises for a tibial plateau break?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Timing is everything: The simple answer is yes. If not operated on, pt with rom and quad strengthening will be initiated once your doctor feels it is stable. Following surgery, pr is frequently started earlier as long as the fracture is stable. Healing time usually is 3 to 4 months.
