Common Pain Conditions Explained
What is a Strain?
A strain refers to the stretching or tearing of muscle or tendon fibers, often caused by overuse or sudden trauma. It can be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-term), presenting with pain, swelling, and limited range of motion.
What is a Sprain?
Sprains occur when ligaments are stretched or torn due to sudden movement or stress on a joint. Symptoms include pain, swelling, and sometimes a "pop" sound at the time of injury.
Joint Dysfunction
Joint dysfunction arises from issues like facet joint irritation or sacroiliac joint dysfunction. It can be caused by injury or degenerative disease, which can lead to pain, swelling, and limited mobility.
Joint Degeneration
Also known as osteoarthritis, joint degeneration refers to the "wear and tear" that occurs in aging joints over time. Symptoms include pain, swelling, stiffness, and a cracking sensation during movement.
Nerve Entrapment
Nerve entrapment occurs when pressure is placed on nerves by surrounding tissue, causing shooting pain, numbness, or a tingling sensation. This can be triggered by injuries, repetitive motion, or even pregnancy.
