Abstract：
Discitis linked to Pott\'s spine is an infrequent yet severe issue, especially difficult to manage among elderly individuals due to age-related bodily changes and concurrent health issues. This report details the successful physiotherapy-based recovery of a senior patient afflicted with discitis related to Pott\'s spine. The individual, a 61-year-old man, presented symptoms including intense back pain, restricted movement, and neurological issues. The diagnosis was confirmed via imaging scans, indicating spinal tuberculosis and vertebral disc involvement. Treatment embraced a comprehensive approach involving medication alongside physiotherapy. The physiotherapeutic regimen aimed at pain alleviation, enhancing spinal flexibility, strengthening weakened muscles, and promoting functional autonomy. Techniques such as manual therapy, targeted exercises, and patient education were employed. Despite the challenges posed by the patient\'s age and existing conditions, significant enhancements in pain management, mobility, and everyday functioning were noted during the rehabilitation journey. This case underscores the significance of prompt diagnosis, collaborative care, and personalized physiotherapeutic interventions in attaining positive outcomes for elderly patients grappling with discitis associated with Pott\'s spine. Further investigation is needed to delineate optimal rehabilitation approaches for this intricate condition among the elderly.
摘要：
与Pott脊柱相关的关节炎是一个罕见但严重的问题，由于年龄相关的身体变化和并发的健康问题，老年人尤其难以管理。本报告详细介绍了一名患有与Pott脊柱相关的椎间盘炎的高级患者的基于物理治疗的成功康复。个人，一个61岁的男人,出现的症状包括剧烈的背痛，限制移动,和神经问题。通过影像学扫描证实了诊断，表明脊柱结核和椎间盘受累。治疗包括一种综合方法，包括药物治疗和理疗。旨在缓解疼痛的理疗方案，增强脊柱的灵活性，加强虚弱的肌肉，促进功能自治。技术，如手动治疗，有针对性的练习,并采用患者教育。尽管患者的年龄和现有条件带来的挑战，显著增强疼痛管理，移动性,在康复过程中注意到日常运作。这个案例强调了迅速诊断的重要性，协作式护理,和个性化的物理治疗干预措施，以实现老年患者与Pott脊柱相关的椎间盘炎的积极结果。需要进一步的调查来描述老年人这种复杂状况的最佳康复方法。
