Synergistic effects of physiotherapy and diaphragmatic stretching in post-tuberculosis pleural effusion management: A case report

This case underscores the potential benefits of incorporating diaphragmatic stretching and complementary physiotherapy techniques into the management of post-tuberculosis pleural effusion. By addressing residual pulmonary deficits, these interventions can significantly improve respiratory function and patient outcomes. Future studies should explore the broader applicability and long-term effects of such rehabilitation strategies in larger cohorts.

Abstract

This case underscores the potential benefits of incorporating diaphragmatic stretching and complementary physiotherapy techniques into the management of post-tuberculosis pleural effusion. By addressing residual pulmonary deficits, these interventions can significantly improve respiratory function and patient outcomes. Future studies should explore the broader applicability and long-term effects of such rehabilitation strategies in larger cohorts.
