Fracture & Sports Injury Rehab Centre in Himatnagar
After a fracture heals or a sports injury is treated, the joint is often stiff and the muscles weak. Physiotherapy restores movement, strength and balance and helps you return safely to work and sport. At Pluto Hospital, Himatnagar, rehab is planned with your orthopaedic surgeon based on how the bone or ligament is healing.
Understanding the Condition
Why Rehab After Injury?
Weeks in a plaster or brace make joints stiff and muscles thin. After ligament surgery, the knee must regain movement and strength in the right order to protect the graft. Guided rehab speeds recovery and lowers the risk of re-injury.
Who It Helps
- After fracture treatment – plaster or surgery

Common Questions
Injury Rehab FAQs
Why is my joint stiff after the plaster is removed?
Keeping a joint still for weeks makes it stiff. Physiotherapy gradually restores movement.
How long is rehab after ACL surgery?
Usually 6–9 months before a full return to sport, with progress checked at each stage.
Can I return to sport without rehab?
It is not advised. Weak muscles and poor balance greatly increase the risk of re-injury.
Will physiotherapy help an old ankle sprain?
Yes. Balance and strengthening exercises help ankles that keep twisting.
When should rehab start after a fracture?
Often while the bone heals, with exercises for nearby joints, and fully once your surgeon allows.
