How to Work Around Injuries

The following piece of advice is going to seem counterintuitive, but hear us out: you shouldn’t only rest when you injure yourself. When you injure a joint, loading it with weight can cause intolerable pain. However, joint injuries tend to not fully cripple us because they’re localized. Additionally, joint injuries don’t fully debilitate the joint either; they limit the joint’s range of motion.

Joints aren’t isolated from the rest of our body. Muscles support and attach to the joints, and the joints above and below a joint also provide support.

The severity of the injury can vary significantly from minor scrapes and bruises to more serious problems such as whiplash, broken bones, herniated discs, and damage to internal organs. To make matters worse, many people are unable to feel the muscle or joint pain immediately because they are in a state of shock after the accident.

Regardless of the severity of the injury, the pain can interfere with your daily activities and lower your quality of life over time. It’s tempting to brush aside the pain as temporary, but that will likely make matters worse.
