Deformity
A deformity refers to an abnormality in the musculoskeletal system that can lead to pain, discomfort, and limited movement. Deformities may result from various causes and can vary significantly in the degree of disability they cause. Physiotherapy can play a crucial role in managing deformities by helping to improve function, mobility, and overall independence.
Causes of deformities
There are a variety of medical conditions and injuries that can lead to the development of deformities. Some of the most common causes include:
