Overview

The goal of this observational cross sectionl study is to explore the correlation between Böhler angle and dynamic postural stability indices after calcaneal internal fixation. * To explore the correlation between Böhler angle and fall risk index after calcaneal internal fixation. * To explore the correlation between Gissane angle and dynamic postural stability indices after calcaneal internal fixation. * To explore the correlation between Gissane angle and fall risk index after calcaneal internal fixation. * To explore if Böhler angle can predict dynamic postural stability indices after calcaneal internal fixation. * To explore if Böhler angle can predict fall risk index after calcaneal internal fixation. * To explore if Gissane angle can predict dynamic postural stability indices after calcaneal internal fixation. * To explore if Gissane angle can predict fall risk index after explore in calcaneal fracture post internal fixation both gender, (18-40) yr, The main questions it aims to answer are: • Will there be a significant correlation between Böhler angle and dynamic postural stability indices after calcaneal internal fixation? * Will there be a significant correlation between Böhler angle and fall risk index after calcaneal internal fixation? * Will there be a significant correlation between Gissane angle and dynamic postural stability indices after calcaneal internal fixation? * Will there be a significant correlation between Gissane angle and fall risk index after calcaneal internal fixation? * Will Böhler angle can significantly predict dynamic postural stability indices after calcaneal internal fixation? * Will Böhler angle can significantly predict fall risk index after calcaneal internal fixation? * Will Gissane angle can significantly predict dynamic postural stability indices after calcaneal internal fixation? * Will Gissane angle can significantly predict fall risk index after calcaneal internal fixation?
