Summary

The purpose of the study is designed to evaluate the combined effect of core stability and theraband resisted exercises on gait parameters in lower limb burn.

Conditions

  • Burns

Interventions

OTHER

Core stability exercises

Core stability exercises will be performed for 8 weeks, 3 times per week, 30 minutes per session. The program includes bed, wedge, and Swiss ball exercises. Bed exercises involve bridges, curl-ups, bird dog, and side bridges. Wedge exercises include curl-ups in various arm positions. Ball exercises involve bridges, curl-ups, bird dog, and push-ups. Each position is held for 7 seconds with 10 seconds of rest, repeated 10 times per set, for 2 sets per session with 60 seconds rest between sets.

OTHER

Theraband resisted exercises

TheraBand resisted exercises will be performed for 8 weeks, 3 times per week, 30 minutes per session. Each session includes a 5-minute warm-up (stretching and joint mobilization), 30 minutes of resistance training for lower limbs (ankle, knee, hip), and a 5-minute cool-down with deep breathing and self-massage. Exercises include ankle flexion/extension, knee flexion/extension, and hip flexion/extension, abduction/adduction using elastic bands. Movements are done alternately on both sides, 10 reps each, 3 sets per session, with 1-2 min rest between sets. Yellow bands are used in weeks 1-4; green bands in weeks 5-8.

OTHER

Traditional physical therapy program

All patients will receive a traditional physical therapy program consisting of ambulation training, stretching exercises for lower limb muscles, and range of motion exercises.
