Recognizing Symptoms of Muscle Injury
Muscle injuries often present with pain during movement or at rest. You may notice stiffness, reduced mobility, or weakness that affects lifting, bending, walking, or other functional activities.
Bruising or swelling may appear after a more acute injury. Sudden muscle spasms or ongoing tightness can also indicate a muscle disorder that may benefit from physiotherapy.
If these symptoms persist or begin to interfere with daily activity, a physiotherapy assessment can help identify the source of the problem and the most effective path forward.
