Fractures can cause functional impotence, deformity, bruising, numbness, pain, and tingling. Many require surgery and physical rehabilitation provided by qualified personnel and adequate equipment. The objetive of this study was to apply physical rehabilitation and high intensity super inductive system as a treatment for postsurgical fracture. A 46-year-old woman suffered a fall from her own height, fracturing the right tibia and fibula, and, an open reduction plus internal fixation was performed, after confirming the diagnosis. She was discharged with a south-pedic splint, which was removed 6 weeks later The patient, began to walk with progressive partial support with 6/10 increased eva pain, limitation of mobility and bimalleolar edema. The radiograph shows a solution of continuity of the tibial malleolus with osteosynthesis material. She receives a non-invasive therapeutic proposal, suspension of the load, physical rehabilitation for 5 weeks, and a high intensity super inductive system 3 times a week. Radiographic evaluation of the right ankle anterior, lateral, and oblique shows correct reduction of the tibial malleolus. Flexion, extension, inversion and eversion are assessable without pain or edema. Rehabilitation and high intensity super inductive system with high power electromagnetic fields, biostimulate bone repair and accelerates bone treatment, relieving pain. It can be concluded that the rehabilitation and the high-intensity super-inductive system with high-power electromagnetic fields, biostimulates bone repair, and accelerates the osteosynthesis period with pain reduction, achieving functional recovery of the patient.
