Post-surgical rehabilitation for sports-related injuries focuses on restoring athletic performance and preventing re-injury. The initial phase includes rest and controlled movement to protect the healing tissue. Gradually, patients work with physical therapists to rebuild strength, flexibility, and endurance through sport-specific exercises. Proprioception exercises, which improve balance and coordination, are crucial to restoring stability. A slow return to sport is recommended, with a focus on safe movements to avoid stressing the surgical area. Athletes may also work with sports psychologists to manage performance anxiety and set realistic return-to-play goals.
