‘By visiting Chester’s Best Knee Pain Clinic, Relive Physiotherapy’
Knee Pain is awful, you lose a lot of movement and it’s difficult to get around. The pain is almost constant, the knee is always stiff and you feel generally uncomfortable. Relive Physiotherapy patients with knee pain tell us this all the time. Sound familiar?
Surely it will go away on its own? WRONG!
Should I ignore it? NO!
You’re in pain, your knee is stiff. It’s probably having a ling is negative impact on your life. You’re definitely not moving around as well as you used to. The pain might even be preventing you from sleeping at night.
Will resting your knee help ease the symptoms? Will avoiding those painful activities help? NO AND NO!!
By over-resting and avoiding any kind of movement, you are actually having the opposite effect than the one you wanted. The pain that you are feeling in your knee will get progressively worse, the stiffness will increase and you will actually feel worse than you did in the beginning.
Knee pain is a difficult one to deal with. People often make this worse by doing the WRONG things. It can affect your normal movement, making it more challenging for you to get about, stand or do a lot of household tasks. This has an enormous impact on your self-confidence. You become OVER cautious when living your life and eventually your knee becomes weaker and even stiffer.
Nobody wants to live with knee pain. The people who come to see us at Relive Physiotherapy in Chester with knee pain all ask us:
“WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME"?
Or
"WHY DO I HAVE TO SUFFER THIS KNEE"?
As there is so much information available in lots of different places, we’ve decided to group all the most important bits together for you. We’ve prepared a short report where you can learn about the different conditions that might affect your knee, such as Tendonitis, Bursitis, Arthritis and many more.
There is so much information about knees on the internet. Sadly, the majority of people who come to the Relive Physiotherapy Clinic in Chester to talk about their knee injury have either not found the right explanation or they have been given bad advice by somebody close to them. Whilst phrases such as ‘you’ll feel better with a bit of rest’, ‘give it a few days and see if it hasn’t got better’ or ‘go and see the GP to get some painkillers’, are well-meant, they won’t help your knee condition. Days, weeks, months (and even years) can go by and NOTHING has changed. In fact, the pain might even be worse than it was at the beginning. The advice you got hasn’t helped you – the painkillers have made the pain go away for a while, but as soon as you stop them, the pain is back. It might have been nice to rest for a while (but if you are generally an active person it would have been difficult) but your knee doesn’t feel any better. You’ve followed the advice you got, and it hasn’t worked. You’ve been inactive or on painkillers for a while, but you might even be in worse shape than you were when all this started.
Do the right things. They will help. If you don’t, then you are going to have to get used to knee pain as it will be a constant in your daily life. Getting ‘older’ doesn’t mean accepting knee pain and bowing to the ‘inevitable’. The pain may have stopped you from being active or doing the activities that you love, such as sport, doing the garden, looking after children or doing DIY, but it doesn’t mean that you have to give up on them forever.
If you have a knee injury and are in pain, then you don’t know what or who to believe about what is best for you. The information that you have found on the internet is contradictory and family and friends all have an opinion on what you should do. Very rarely are they medically trained, so despite meaning well, their advice will not help you at all. You are conflicted, you don’t know what to do, so you do NOTHING. Knee pain is sometimes caused by a sharp movement or impact, but more often it has been caused by years of poor knee care and the pain you are feeling is the EFFECT of this.
Don’t suffer in silence as you are not alone. We are here to help. Our experts at the Relive Physiotherapy Clinic in Chester can help your recovery. Our patients tell us:
I thought the pain would go away by itself, but it DIDN’TI’ve been told that everyone my AGE gets this and I’ll just have to ‘Put Up With It’I went to see my GP – they gave me painkillers and told me to rest. It felt better for a while, but as soon as I stopped taking the medication, my knee pain was backI found some exercises on the internet, but they didn’t help, only made it worseI went to see a massage therapist. It was nice and pleasant at first, but it didn’t fix my pain long term
I’ve been to see all manner of people and tried what they recommended but nothing they said or did seemed to helpIf this is YOU, then book a call with the best Physiotherapy Clinic in Chester, and one of our friendly and helpful Relive Physiotherapists can have a chat to you (for FREE) to talk about your knee pain and what we can do to help you. Having tried some or all of the above is GREAT as it means that you are CLOSER to finding what works for you.
Just click on the Request Callback button below to have a FREE chat with one of our Physiotherapists. The form will take about 20 seconds to complete and is the first step on your road to recovery from your knee pain. We’ll give you the right information to help you make an informed choice and get back to doing those activities you LOVE, SLEEPING better and back off the medication that is managing your pain, but not your condition.
Making the right decision TODAY is the first step to treating your knee pain. You will feel better mentally, as if a weight has been taken off your mind. Soon your knee pain will be a dim and distant memory. Put yourself back in control.
Keeping your knee immobile for too long will make it weak, stiff and painful, exactly the opposite of what you are trying to achieve. Resting the right amount can be beneficial, but it isn’t always the right thing for knee pain. Your knee needs to be kept active to stop this from happening and how better to do this than with exercises from your friendly Relive Physiotherapist?
Vital for getting knee pain back under control. The exercises that you will be given by our Physiotherapist are the best way to speed up your recovery. They will be simple to do and will be demonstrated to you to ensure you have the right technique. This will make sure that doing these exercises really count and help you on your road to recovery. People who get their exercises from the internet, are often disappointed. 90% of the exercises that they get from this source are either incorrectly done or not appropriate and this often causes the pain and injury to worsen. Not all knees and knee injuries are the same, so any exercises you do should be given to you by a qualified professional.
You’ll start to feel better by following the 3 steps above. However, nothing beats the effect of ‘hands-on’ treatment. At Relive Physiotherapy, this is a method that you get as standard. The recent trend is for exercises and mobile consultations rather than ‘hands-on’ treatment. We believe that you DESERVE the best and this is often the quickest route to recovery. It delivers lasting results for YOUR knee injury. If you are having mobility issues, or even pain when getting up from the sofa or doing your favourite sport, then TODAY is the first day of your recovery. Call Relive Physiotherapy and we can make it happen!
