Hydrotherapy for balance after burn nerve damage
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests if water therapy (hydrotherapy) can improve balance in people who have nerve damage in their feet after a leg burn. It may help you if you have trouble standing steadily due to a burn on the sole of your foot.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a burn on your lower leg, especially the sole of your foot, that damaged the nerves (called polyneuropathy)
- The burn was a deep third-degree burn covering at least one-third (30%) of your body
- You are between 35 and 45 years old
- You can follow simple instructions and do the exercises
- You do not have other conditions that affect balance (like Parkinson's, inner ear problems, or diabetes)
