Early muscle exercises for leg strength after burns
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether starting simple muscle exercises at different angles early after a burn helps your leg muscles recover better. You would do gentle exercises with your thigh and calf muscles to improve strength and flexibility.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether specific balance exercises, called Frenkel exercises, can help people who have burns on their legs improve their balance and quality of life. If you have healed second-degree burns on 30%-45% of your body and are able to stand, you may be eligible to participate.
This trial tests two types of physical therapy—pulsed electromagnetic therapy and whole body vibration—to see which one helps strengthen the thigh muscles after a burn injury. It may help you recover better strength in your legs.
This study compares two ways to help rebuild leg muscle strength after a second-degree burn. If you have had a burn covering 10-25% of your body, you may be able to join to help improve your recovery.
This study tests whether special jump exercises (called plyometrics) can improve leg function and knee movement in children who have healed from burns. If your child has limited knee movement from a burn, these exercises might help them move better.
