Range of Motion (ROM) is the capability of a joint to go through its complete spectrum of movements. The range of motion of a joint can either be passive or active. Joints may have a limited ROM because of problems within the joint, such as, swelling of tissue around the joint, stiffness of the muscles, or pain.Medical conditions that are associated with a limited ROM in the joint: OsteoarthritisAnkylosing SpondylitisJuvenile RARheumatoid ArthritisLegg-Calve-PerthesCerebral PalsyConge …
