Scar was present over the dorsal and volar aspect of the distal forearm (Figure 1).The range of motion has been depicted in Table 1.
graph showing the strength-duration curve of extensor carpi radialis longus muscle pre and post rehabilitation; nature of curve (A: pre-rehab) is steep and cannot contract to impulse of shorter duration than 3 milliseconds; nature of curve (B: post-rehab) is less steep as compared to pre-rehab which suggests improvements in innervation

Post rehabilitation on 28th day there were significant improvements in parameters of pain intensity (NPRS 2/10), muscle strength (3+/5), range of motion (Table 1), patient-specific functional scale score (7/10) and strength-duration curve showed the status of innervations (Figure 2, Figure 3).
graph showing the strength-duration curve of extensor digitorum communis muscle; nature of curve (A: pre-rehab) is steep and cannot contract to impulse of shorter duration than 2 milliseconds; nature of curve (B: post-rehab) is less steep as compared to pre-rehab which suggests improvements in innervation and contracts to an impulse of 1 milliseconds

Figure 3). Four weeks of rehabilitation was carried out with each week adding a different component to the treatment. Post rehabilitation on 28th day there were significant improvements in parameters of pain intensity (NPRS 2/10), muscle strength (3+/5), range of motion (Table 1), patient-specific functional scale score (7/10) and strength-duration curve showed the status of innervations (Figure 2, Figure 3).
