description Proximal femur fractures that occur within 5 cm of the lesser trochanter are commonly referred to as subtrochanteric femur fractures (STF). In this case report, we depicted a 45-year-old who came with a history of road traffic accident (RTA) for which an investigation like an X-ray was performed which revealed STF and the patient was surgically managed. Postoperatively, the patient's main complaints were pain around the hip joint with restriction in performing hip joint full range of motion. For these complaints, she was given physiotherapy. There was a reduction in joint pain, a significant improvement in joint movement, and increased muscle strength which was observed after evaluating the outcome measures.
