Arm mobility while casted. Having an arm cast is no fun and can be painful. Having a cast lends itself to maintaining the arm in a protective dependent position (shoulder adduction and internal rotation with elbow flexion). No matter where your arm fracture is keeping the joints closest to your body (proximal) mobile is very important. The exercises in this video are a few examples of arm mobility exercises that can be performed while casted (in my case a thumb cast). It’s always important to be cleared for any exercise routine when fractured by a medical professional prior to attempting. So use caution when attempting these exercises. Let's get those arms moving and speed up your recovery process! ✅ follow @movement__mentor for more tips on how to perform tasks easier! ⚠️ Disclaimer this is for knowledge basis only; if you have pain or functional limitations see a medical professional. #ArmMobility #CastedExercises #FractureRecovery #PhysicalTherapy #GetMoving #pain #mobilityworkout #stretching #armpain #shoulderexercise #elbowexercise #thumbfracture #physicaltherapist #movementmentor #physio
