Q: Can physical therapy help strengthen a
tibia bone break between the knee and ankle once it heals?
A: Once your fracture has healed, the muscles
in your leg will likely be weak and tight. A physical therapist can
evaluate these deficits and instruct you in an exercise program to
improve your flexibility and strengthen weak muscles. You may also
have other deficits such as ankle instability, balance difficulties,
and gait abnormalities which a physical therapist can also address
to help you get back to all of your regular activities as quickly
and safely as possible. more questions answered
