Swimming after long nerve grafting can significantly improve muscle functional behavior and volume. The effect is less evident on nerve regeneration. Continuous exercise and early exercise after surgery show more optimal outcomes than late or no exercise. Having a good habit with exercise in the early period is thought as the main reason. Further studies are needed to determine the optimal exercise regimen.
