Are Constant Injuries a Sign of Something More Serious?

For those who exercise or take part in sports on regular basis, the chances of sustaining an injury are not small. However, whilst most people will only sustain injuries from time to time, there are those who seem to not only injure themselves on a regular basis, but also find that they seem to get very similar injuries over and over again.

For those in such a position, it may seem that it is merely the case of consistently doing the same thing wrong, but it may also be that there is something more serious at play.

However, which case is applicable to an individual might not be quite so easy to determine. Whilst for some it will indeed be a case of going about a sport in the wrong way or failing to warm-up in the correct manner, for others, the injury will simply never have had the chance to heal, and for others still there may simply be a genetic predisposition to sustaining certain injuries.

Visiting a physio in Wimbledon may well help for many different reasons. Not only might they be able to ensure that certain repetitive injuries actually get the chance to heal properly, but they may also be able to see what physical condition your body is in in general and see how this may be affecting certain areas of your body. For example, those with a slight curvature of the spine may well be far more prone to pulling muscles in their neck, whilst those who sit cross-legged may be the ones who most often experience problems with their knees.

By taking the time to visit a West London phsyio, you are far more likely to understand what the real route cause of recurring injuries is and in turn how best to deal with the problem, whether that is simple conditioning or even perhaps an operation further down the line.
