WHAT CAN HAPPEN POSTOPERATIVELY?
Just like any major fall or cut to the body, a surgery can be considered a trauma. Any traumatic incident can bring with it the risk of scar tissue that can impact the way the body functions, and can affect the related muscles. Frequently, we see inhibition of key muscle groups which can lead to other problems in both the short and long term, and/or spasm which can create pain and other issues.
HOW CAN PHYSIO HELP?
Your physiotherapist might request to see you preoperatively in order to best prepare you for any potential surprises, and to already begin your healing. Typically, the stronger we enter into a surgery, the stronger we come out of it. In addition, after a surgery, there is a period of convalescence where you will not likely be able to see your physical therapist. If you do the work preoperatively, you will already be equipped with a set of exercises and tips that can help you on your road to recovery during this phase.
Post operatively, your physiotherapist will be able to identify the structures and functions that have been impacted by your procedure, and address them accordingly until you are able to achieve your personal goals!
