I'm a Doctor of Physical Therapy that is committed to making pain and injuries easy to understand with a sense of humor. We all have bodies and we all deserve to know how to help ourselves when something doesn't feel like it should. I'm currently sticking with the short form videos but hope to start posting longer form content soon!
Thouggt this was my problem and skated on my knee and even swimmed with it then one day it swelled up real bad and we decided to go to the hospital. Turns out i broke my fibula a week prior when i fell off my skateboard but i didnt realize it was broken
I was playing volleyball yesterday and I have a few hours till tryouts, my knee popped big yesterday and hurt like heck. Everytime I straighten my leg and bend it it pops and if you put your hand over it you can feel it popping in and out. Idk what to do but I have to compete tonight 😭 please help
I am having jaw lock issue after second seating for root canal. I approached to dentist she suggested some warm massage or physio exercise. Nothing worked but this worked at first trial. Let me go for more days. Thanks
Yep the issue is when walking you cant really keep the feet angled out (or at least i cant) because it leads to a sort of side to side droping down onto the leg. So i cant walk comfortably as it causes injuries, but the coping stategies also cause more global injuries just more progressively.
Most comments are saying this is super easy. As a kid, young adult I’m sure I would’ve said the same. I’m now 60 yrs w/ lifelong knee and foot issues, suffered herniated disc/ sciatica after an injury in my 30s which led to weakened core and excruciating hip issue the past 6 months. I would be THRILLED to squat and stand like this!
I never made a video about it but it's truly one of my hacks whenever a migraine comes along. I always would try to be near a bathtub whenever I felt one coming. I started with cold water because I used to take cold showers with the drain plugged so that water would start building in the tub. I then noticed that all I had to do was run water in the tub and step in. The migraines would go away in sometimes minutes. Then ai tried hot water and saw that it did work also. There were times when it would take like 15 mins or more to feel better and some times it wouldn't work. Another hack that I can do almost anywhere is, stick a couple fingers down your throat and try to throw up. That seems to work very well for me. Good luck 🤠
