Exercise can
be dangerous
and painful
This is no everyday morning
stroll. The day looks perfect for a
relaxing walk. The difference is
that ever step is taken with
agonizing pain. The moment your
foot meets the ground you feel a
jolt travel from your hip to your
toes. As you walk along, you
notice that you're focusing harder
and harder to block out the pain.
The conversation in your head is
"deafening.” Walk it off, it’ll be
ok. Keep it moving. Don't stop
now. That's what my ball coach
always said. As long as I can move
I'm not really hurt." Suddenly you
realize that something isn't right
about this. You have to get help.
Sadly, this is the story I hear
from so many people with injuries.
The real tragedy is that many times
the injury is worsened by trying to
exercise the problem away. We
have to remember that anytime we
feel pain it indicates an area in
distress. A part of our body is
telling us that something isn't just
right. Usually the pain is focused
around a joint. It could be our

knee, elbow, hip, or even a joint in
our neck or back. Usually a
tightness or spasm might be felt.
Again, that's the body at work
trying to limit the damage by
restricting motion. You see, joints
are surrounded by very fragile
structures like arteries, veins,
tendons and nerves. So what can
forcing the joint exercise do?
Although exercising the joint
doesn't guarantee further damage,
it's not a chance you want to take.
The highest risk involves
exercising when the pain "shoots"
or travels from one area to another,
such as from the neck to the
shoulder or from the hip to the
foot. These symptoms almost
guarantee that a nerve is involved.
But how can it be? Isn’t exercise
good for injuries? The secret is
timing.
First find out why the pain is
there. Can you imagine exercising
