Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recovery of muscle performance after conservative treatment and surgical treatment in musculoskeletal injury is the most important factor for return to play or return to sports. Muscle performance consists of muscle strength, muscle endurance, and neuromuscular control, etc., and these factors mean functional results.
The recovery of these muscle performance deserves attention and research in various clinical fields. Despite advances in surgical and conservative treatment for musculoskeletal injuries, it is still difficult to determine the most effective and appropriate treatment for patients.
In this special issue of IJERPH, we welcome research on various clinical or functional recovery of surgical and conservative treatment for musculoskeletal injuries in various fields such as orthopedics, rehabilitation medicine, physical therapy, and sports medicine.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Shoulder injury; rotator cuff, shoulder instability, etc.
- Knee injury, ACL reconstruction, Meniscus repair, PFPS, etc.
- Ankle injury, ankle sprain, achilles, plantar fasciitis, etc.
- Spine injury, LBP, disc, etc.
- Sports injury
