description A diaphysis fracture that occurs between 5 cm distal to the lesser trochanter and 5 cm proximal to the adductor tubercle is recognized as a femoral shaft fracture and is prevalent in runners and military personnel. A patient's ability to carry out activities of daily living effectively and efficiently post-surgery is hampered by a variety of obstacles. We present a case of a 21-year-old male who came to the hospital with a complaint of pain and swelling in his right leg. The patient was diagnosed with a proximal femur fracture. Physiotherapy procedures commenced with the purpose of alleviating pain and establishing a normal range of motion. As a result of the physiotherapy regimens, the patient was aided in his recovery.
