Pes Anserinus Cont....


Today is the fifth day of his treatment...
On further examination we noted tightness of hamstrings and calf muscles. 
Our treatment plan is Ultrasound therapy with hydrocortisone cream (phonophoresis) X 7 days.
Stretching of hamstring muscles, calf muscles.
We applied taping technique, with lower leg on internal rotation from third day , that also reduced pain. He is still on rest.. Ask him to avoid stressful activities like hill climbing, stair climbing, twisting, prolonged marching etc..
Now there is 50% reduction in frequency of pain. Weight bearing and walking improved.
We r also waiting for further improvement... after hamstring stretching exercises
