[Physical rehabilitation for ankle joint injuries in the elderly and senile (stage 3).].

Ankle injuries are among the most common musculoskeletal injuries in the elderly. However, among the new scientific publications, both foreign and domestic, there are almost no examples and algorithms for conducting rehabilitation exercises for elderly patients, which prevents the introduction of these practices into rehabilitation measures. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the created technique of physical rehabilitation and, with a reliable result, to introduce it into the daily work of doctors of various profiles who provide assistance to patients with ankle joint injuries.

[Physical rehabilitation for ankle joint injuries in elderly and elderly people (Stage 2).].

The main part of the injuries of elderly and senile patients as a result of physical activity falls on the lower limbs, due to the increased load during movement. Ankle injuries have a multifactorial etiology involving the interaction of compensatory spinal and leg biomechanics, environmental factors, and shoe selection. In this regard, it is necessary to prepare a complex of rehabilitation measures, including physical therapy, with the possibility of implementing the recovery process not only on an outpatient basis, but also at home, thereby improving the quality of life and preventing disability.

[Physical rehabilitation for ankle joint injuries in elderly and elderly people (Stage 1).].

A multidisciplinary approach to recovery after injuries of the ankle joint in elderly and senile people by specialists of various profiles using drug and non-drug methods is especially relevant today. It is required to develop and put into practice various options for the combined use of physical rehabilitation means at different stages of the rehabilitation treatment of elderly and senile patients with this pathology. The study revealed no significant complications and side effects when using this technique, which allows us to recommend it as a means of secondary prevention and injuries of the ankle joint, especially with contraindications to the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and glucocorticosteroids.

[Physical rehabilitation for degenerative-dystrophic diseases of the hip joint in elderly and senile people (stage 1).].

Changes in the age structure of the planet's population are leading to an increase in the number of geriatric patients requiring replacement of large joints. Age-related weakness, loss of muscle mass, testosterone deficiency, excess weight, and the presence of concomitant diseases make the process of rehabilitation treatment labor-intensive and lead to various complications. The purpose of our work was to evaluate the effectiveness of the modernized method of physical therapy at the first stage of rehabilitation treatment in elderly and senile patients with osteoarthritis of the hip joint.

[Physical rehabilitation for osteochondrosis of the cervical and thoracic spine in elderly and senile people (Stage 3).].

The concept of a multidisciplinary approach to the treatment of osteochondrosis in elderly and senile patients by specialists of various profiles using medicinal and non-medicinal methods is especially relevant today, therefore, it is necessary to develop and put into practice various options for the combined use of physical rehabilitation means at different stages of rehabilitation treatment of elderly and senile patients with osteochondrosis of the cervical and thoracic spine. The dynamics of clinical manifestations of osteochondrosis after rehabilitation treatment relative to the age of patients in groups showed that the effectiveness of the technique is much higher in elderly patients, in contrast to senile patients and centenarians. The study revealed no significant complications and side effects when using this technique, which allows us to recommend it as a means of secondary prevention of diseases of the cervical and thoracic osteochondrosis, especially in the presence of contraindications to the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and glucocorticoids.
