Abstract

Introduction: Understanding the relationship between the functional structure of the knee and pain can contribute to increasing the therapist’s knowledge of the degree of pain and improving the quality of rehabilitation programs for injured athletes.

Objective: The research aimed to find predictive equations for the degree of pain among athletes with partial rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament as a function of measuring some indicators of the functional structure of the knee joint during the injury period on a sample of (18) of the injured, conducting the necessary tests and measurements.

Methodology: The study used Arab and foreign sources, experts and specialists, and skill tests. Divided ruler For ten fields containing numbers from (1-10). Telsa Siemens Magnetom Erlangen (MRI) machine made in Germany. The researcher determined the measurements and tests after consultation and approval of the specialist doctors for these tests and measurements. Testing the degree of pain, visual analog scale, in the cases of adduction and abduction.

Results: The results of some statistics (arithmetic mean, standard deviation, lowest two values, and highest measurement) are represented in the functional structure of the knee joint and the degree of pain.

Conclusions: Concluding. Variable (Joint space and erosion of synovial fluid), with the highest percentage of contribution to the degree of pain for the knee joint in injured athletes. Etemad recommended the percentage of contributions shown by the study from sports medicine and physical therapists.
