Joint Sprains and Muscular Strains

There is always a reason why muscular and joint pain develops. A well taken history and an examination will reveal how and why the problem started. I can then advise you on how to stay better.

The most common reasons are:

• Inactivity – due to illness or work / home commitments
• Posture – poor working posture increases the strain on whole body
• Fitness – a loss of fitness, but you are doing the same things
• Sport – playing too often or not training enough
• Injury – a poorly rehabilitated previous injury, or I ‘rested’ the injury
• Combination of all of the above

Common complaints seen are:

• Frozen shoulders
• Repeated neck and back pain that will not go away
• Headaches, sometimes leading to migraine
• Tight and stiff hip muscles
• Sore and stiff ankles
• Painful big toe
• Plantar fasciitis (policeman’s heel)

If you are unsure if I can help or not, then please phone and tell me your symptoms. I will give you an honest answer whether you need to see me or not, and what you should do next.
