Wooden block breakthrough: simpler ankle rehab shows promise
NCT ID NCT05280639
First seen Jun 11, 2026 · Last updated Jun 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a simple wooden block stretching routine can replace standard physical therapy for people recovering from ankle or pilon fracture surgery. About 30 adults aged 18-65 who had surgery for these fractures will be randomly assigned to either the wooden block method or usual rehab. The goal is to see if the simpler approach works just as well for regaining ankle movement and is easier for patients to stick with.
