Methods of Patellar Rehabilitation Training
Generally, there are many methods for patellar rehabilitation training, such as ankle pump exercises, quadriceps muscle contraction exercises, hamstring contraction exercises, squatting exercises, and straight leg raises. Taking quadriceps muscle contraction exercise as an example, the specific steps are as follows:
1. Perform warm-up exercises before starting to prevent muscle injury during rehabilitation training.
2. Sit on a bed with the knee joint extended straight.
3. Fully extend the ankle joint to promote sustained contraction of the quadriceps muscles on the front of the thigh.
4. Slowly lift the lower limb 15 cm off the bed, hold for 5 seconds while maintaining a straight-leg position, then slowly lower the limb. Perform this exercise three times daily, with each session lasting 3–5 minutes.
During the rehabilitation period, it is important to maintain a balanced diet, promptly correct unhealthy eating habits, and ensure nutritional balance in daily meals. Patellar rehabilitation training should be conducted at a正规 medical facility under the guidance of a qualified physician.
