Elbow injuries can occur with acute traumas such as a fall or accident as well as from repetitive microtrauma/ overloading such as with the commonly known “tennis elbow”. The elbow joint complex comprises of both the unique ulno-humeral hinge and the rotary radio-humeral joint, with joint traumatic injury it is the most susceptible to stiffness. Elbow disorders can often become chronic and slow to settle, with the ideal early management we aim to prevent this from occurring. Both acute and chronic elbow disorders can respond well with physio management strategies.
Persistent nerve pain, or neuropathic pain can be caused by anything from trauma, mechanical irritation, infection, inflammation, burns or prolonged immobilisation of a limb. It can even turn up at times with very little history. Symptoms can vary from an ache through to sharp, prickling, tingling, burning or electric shock sensations. If you have nerve pain you might wonder how physiotherapy can help to offer your relief.
Hip pain involves any pain in or around the hip joint. Hip-related pain is not always felt directly over the hip. Instead, you may feel it in the middle of your thigh. Similarly, pain you feel in the hip may actually reflect a problem in your back, rather than your hip itself. It is important to make an accurate diagnosis of the cause of your symptoms so that appropriate treatment can be directed at the underlying problem.
Your hips and knees: they’re the largest joints in your body, connecting a large number of muscles, bones and ligaments. That means that much of the daily abuse that your body takes can ultimately impact your hips and knees. And when these crucial joints begin to show strain, it can become difficult to move much at all — at least without pain.
For that reason, it’s important to seek medical attention for hip and knee pain as soon as possible. Often, physical therapy can be the key to avoiding surgery or prescription medication altogether, or rebounding quickly from those less conservative treatments.
Foot and ankle pain is one of the more difficult injuries to have. Your daily life can be affected severely when you have trouble walking or cannot stand for long periods of time. Acute conditions can be caused by a rolled ankle, sport injury or over use. However chronic conditions that need to be treated are Plantar Fasciitis, neuropathy, tendon tears or ligament injuries and arthritis. All of which cause inflammation in the foot and ankle.
The feet bear the weight of the body upon them, but the heel of the foot receives little thought unless it begins to hurt. Pain can originate under the heel (plantar fasciitis) or the back of the heel in the Achilles tendon. Inflammation, swelling and pain re common complaints associated with the heel.
