Abstract
Rehabilitation
after athletes’acute
musculoskeletal injuries is one
of the top priorities of sports medicine. The data about the basic
tissular response to injury and the experimental studies suggested
that the use of a short period of immobilization followed by
controlled and progressive mobilization seems to be superior to
prolonged immobilization. These data were confronted with the data
gathered from clinical trials which confirmed the hypothesis above.
This paper intends to make a short review of the literature
concerning this aspect of the medical practice.
