“Keep Moving But when …. why …. where?” - Answer to “When”


In the last post I introduced the concept of  "Keep Moving for healthy living"


Let us get to answer for “When”.

If my body aches, if there is pain in my knee, if my ankle is swollen, if my shoulder clicks when I try to reach shelves above my head, then how am I supposed to move?


In conditions as above, our body tells us through pain, “There is some problem in this part. Please look at me. Please take care of me.” In such situations we should not move that particular region and consult appropriate medical advice.


Many a times REST is advised in initial stages of any medical problem. But after this initial stage MOVEMENT is advised.


So answer to “When”: after medical advice and under supervision of an experienced Physiotherapist.
