Injuries are unfortunately a part of every athlete's life, and soccer players are no exception. When a player at A.S.D. Fontanafredda Club suffers an injury, the rehabilitation process is crucial to his return to full fitness. Below we will present some examples of the rehabilitation processes after injuries to our players.

 Rehabilitation after Ankle Sprain

One of our players suffered a sprained ankle during a match. After the injury, he immediately underwent an examination that confirmed the sprain. He then began a rehabilitation program that included rest, ice on the injured area, compression and elevation of the leg (RICE method) to relieve swelling and pain. When the condition of the ankle improved, the athlete began gentle range-of-motion exercises, gradually progressing to strengthening and balance exercises.

 Rehabilitation after Knee Injury

Another player suffered a cruciate ligament injury in his knee. This is a serious injury that required surgery and long-term rehabilitation. After the surgery, the athlete went through several stages of rehabilitation, from exercises to rebuild the knee's range of motion, to strength and balance exercises, to sports training. The process took many months and required many sessions with a physiotherapist.

 Rehabilitation after Bone Fracture

One of our athletes suffered a broken bone during training. After stabilizing the fracture and taking the necessary time to rest, he began rehabilitation with a physiotherapist. Initially, they focused on restoring full range of motion in the limb, and then began working on muscle strength. Finally, the player began functional training to restore full playing ability.

All these examples show how the rehabilitation process after injuries is individual and depends on the type of injury. In each case, it is important for the player to be patient, focus on his exercises and follow the recommendations of specialists. In this way, he can return to full fitness and continue his sports career.
