ABSTRACT
Guillain-Barré syndrome is a polyneuropathy that can be caused by an autoimmune condition or a bacterial infection. In typical GBS cases, there is hypo- or areflexia, symmetrical limb weakness that worsens within four weeks of the symptoms. The facial nerve is involved in this situation, which results in weak facial muscles, which, in turn, affect facial emotions and movements. In this case study, a 21-year-old athlete who suffered from unexpected weakness that resulted in quadriplegia had goal-oriented physical therapy treatment designed for the patient, who recovered quickly. This case study aims to emphasize how goal-oriented physical therapy treatment can help patients recover quickly.
ABSTRACT
Discomfort and stiffness in the shoulder joint are the main causes of a frozen shoulder. The main contributing factor to frozen shoulder is typically co-morbid disorders like diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Adhesive capsulitis is another name for a frozen shoulder. Range of motion is the main aspect that is targeted when the illness slowly worsens. The three stages of a frozen shoulder are the freezing stage, the frozen stage, and the thawing stage. Physical therapy plays an important role in providing relief for this condition, but the usual conservative management is more time-consuming, so a patient with a frozen shoulder is managed along with Gong's mobilization and the usual conservative management is given for two weeks. This case report aims to show the result of Gong's mobilization in two weeks. Further, in this case report, the proper procedure for the Gong's mobilization is explained.
