The use of physiotherapy in medical rehabilitation programs in the early postoperative period in patients after surgical treatment of breast cancer

The study included 70 patients in the early postoperative period (2–4 days), operated for breast cancer (breast cancer). Patients of group 1 (n = 24) underwent 10 procedures of shoulder girdle and upper limb muscle fluctuation on the side of surgery; patients of group 2 (n = 23) underwent 10 procedures of fluctuating currents and intermittent pneumocompression; and patients of group 3 (n = 23) in addition to fluctuation and intermittent pneumocompression, an expanded technique of low-frequency low-intensity magnetic therapy was performed. It has been proved that all patients have reduced postoperative edema, reduced pain, reduced the number of postoperative complications in the wound area (inflammation, infection, pain, suture divergence), shortened the duration of lymphorrhea. There is an increase in the volume and quality of movements, reduced sensitivity disorders in the upper limb. Thus, the inclusion in the medical rehabilitation program of patients who have undergone surgical treatment of breast cancer in the early postoperative period (from 2–3 days) of fluctuating currents, intermittent pneumocompression and low-frequency low-intensity magnetic therapy reduces the risk of postoperative complications and helps to reduce the recovery time.
