The musculoskeletal system in the human body helps provide proper form and support. It contributes to the stability of the body, and forms an important part of the movements. This system is made up of several parts, including muscle tissue, cartilage, tendons, joints, and ligaments. The skeleton itself, along with additional connective tissues, forms part of the musculoskeletal system.

We will learn what is meant by rehabilitation of the musculoskeletal system through the diseases that affect it, and how to restore the performance and functional efficiency of the affected parts, because this has a great impact on improving the physical and psychological health of patients through pain relief and self-reliance in performing their daily work, which enhances their self-confidence and helps them interact Due to the multiplicity of diseases that affect this device, tests and diagnoses are first done to determine the type of infection and the patient’s health condition through a specialist doctor, such as clinical examination, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, x-rays, or blood tests. After that, a specialized treatment plan is made for each patient according to his condition
