What exercises can be performed in right skeletal lower leg traction?

Right skeletal lower leg traction is a method used to stabilize and align fractures or injuries in the lower leg, allowing for proper healing while minimizing movement. In this context, exercises that are appropriate would focus on gentle movements that do not place stress or load on the affected limb.

Pulling up using the trapeze is an exercise that allows for controlled pulling force while keeping the lower leg stable in traction. This helps maintain upper body strength and mobility without exacerbating the injury. It is crucial for patients on traction to engage in activities that facilitate strength and flexibility without compromising the healing process of the lower leg.

In contrast, while walking on the treadmill, jumping jacks, and performing sit-ups involve more dynamic movements or load-bearing activities, they are not suitable in this scenario. These exercises can increase risk of injury or impede healing by placing unnecessary stress on the skeletal structure in traction. Ultimately, the correct choice enables safe engagement during rehabilitation.
