چکیده

Background: Foot and ankle injuries are among the most common injuries in athletes and can have significant impacts on their athletic performance and quality of life. These types of injuries are typically caused by intense stress, sudden movements, or unexpected falls. Effective rehabilitation and return to play (RTP) depend on factors such as the type and severity of the injury, rehabilitation methods, and the athlete's psychology. This study examines the rehabilitation process and the challenges athletes face after foot and ankle injuries. Methods: This study is based on a systematic review and analysis of existing scientific articles on foot and ankle injuries and rehabilitation in athletes from ۲۰۰۱ to ۲۰۲۴, including sports medicine journals, case studies, and comprehensive reviews. Selection criteria included research quality, type of injury, duration of rehabilitation, and return-to-play outcomes. Additionally, various rehabilitation protocols and assessment methods were used to identify the best rehabilitation practices. Results: Research shows that standardized rehabilitation protocols include phases of pain relief, enhanced mobility and strength, and improved balance and coordination. One study indicates that approximately ۸۰% of athletes return to their previous activities after foot and ankle injuries, although this figure depends on various factors, including adherence to rehabilitation protocols and recovery time. Furthermore, since a rapid return to sport can increase the risk of re-injury, psychological assessment and the athlete's confidence level are also crucial in this process. Athletes who are regularly monitored by physiotherapists during different phases of rehabilitation generally perform better compared to those who progress without a structured plan. Conclusion: Rehabilitation and return to play after foot and ankle injuries in athletes require a multifaceted approach that includes thorough assessment of the injury, designing individualized rehabilitation programs, and considering the psychological aspects of the athlete. By following appropriate rehabilitation practices and continuous evaluation, positive outcomes in the return of athletes to their athletic performance can be achieved, as well as preventing re-injury. Additionally, it should be noted that further research is necessary to determine the best rehabilitation methods and to assist athletes along this path.
