PHYSICAL THERAPY FOR THE RESTORATION OF HIP JOINT AND PATELLA FUNCTION: PRINCIPLES, METHODS, EFFECTIVENESS

The relevance of the study. In the modern world, problems with the health of the musculoskeletal system are becoming increasingly relevant. In particular, pathologies of the hip joint and common visible patella are serious medical problems that significantly impair the quality of life of patients and can limit their physical activity and work activities.Physical therapy plays a key role in this context. It is a necessary component of an integrated approach to the treatment and rehabilitation of patients with hip and patellar pathologies. However, despite the importance of this area, there is a need for further research and development of physical therapy methods aimed at improving the results of treatment and rehabilitation of the target group of patients.The aim of the study is to theoretically and practically substantiate a set of physical therapy measures and their effectiveness in the treatment and rehabilitation of patients with hip joint pathologies and common visible patella.To achieve this goal, a number of tasks need to be solved: – analyze the basic principles and methods of physical therapy for hip joint pathologies; – to highlight the role of physical therapy in the treatment of common visible patella.Materials and Methods. The study used data from the literature, as well as the clinical experience of specialists.The analysis was based on scientific data and clinical observations.Results and Discussion. The results of the study indicate the importance of physical therapy in the restoration of hip and patellar function. The article discusses various methods of physical therapy, such as muscle strengthening exercises, stretching, massage, and other physiotherapeutic approaches.Conclusions. Physical therapy proves to be an effective method in the treatment and rehabilitation of patients with hip joint pathologies and habitual visible patella. Taking into account the individual characteristics of patients, physical therapy may be the best option for treatment and improvement of their condition.
