How to Know When An Injury Needs Professional Attention

While some running-related soreness is normal, there are certain signs that indicate it’s time to seek professional help:

1. Persistent Pain: If the pain doesn’t go away with rest or short-term use of over-the-counter pain relievers, it’s time to give us a call.
2. Swelling or Inflammation: Noticeable swelling or inflammation in the injured area is a huge red flag, especially if this hasn’t happened before. Don’t soldier through it.
3. Reduced Range of Motion: If you’re struggling to move your joint or muscle through its full range of motion, it’s time to get it checked out.
4. Instability or Weakness: Feeling unstable or weak in the injured area could indicate a more serious issue.
