You will discuss:
What is the injury
structures involved
Mechanism of Injury (how injury occurs)
what structures are injured, both primary structures and secondary structures.. for example: MCL injury may have meniscus injury, and probably muscle injury
and discuss the rehabilitation protocol… What must you consider in terms of safety in this program? Does age or gender influence rehabilitation? What are the typical protocols?
What exercises will you start with and why? Are there alternative exercises if the person does not want to perform the one’s you chose due to pain?
Then just ahead to just before you suggest they are returned to activity and play. Provide information on how you would determine if they can return to activity. What functions will you be expecting them to have?
