ABSTRACT
@# ObjectiveTo study the rehabilitation effect on metatarsalyia with combination of thermotherapy, computerized medium-frequency electrotherapy,exercise therapy and ADL.Methods70 cases with metatarsalyia were randomly divided into two groups the control group of 35 cases who were given routine treatment and the experiment group of 35 cases who were added thermotherapy, computerized medium-frequency electrotherapy, exercise therapy and ADL. 30 days later, the evaluating score for walking was used to evaluate the rehabilitation effect.ResultsIn the control group, 14 cases were cured, 8 cases remarkably effective, 10 effective and 3 ineffective, while that in the experiment group was 22 cured, 7 remarkably effective, 5 effective, and 1 ineffective(P<0.05). The mean of the difference in evaluation scoring before and after the treatment was (28.00±20.26) for the control,(38.29±21.35) for the experiment (P<0.05). The average cure days was (18.00±6.45) for the experiment and (23.00±7.64) for the control(P<0.05).ConclusionThe combined treatment produces is remarkably effective for metatarsalyia.
