Recognizing Symptoms of Tendon/Ligament Disorders
Tendon and ligament disorders often present with clear and persistent signs. You may feel pain near the affected joint, stiffness that limits your range of motion, or weakness that makes lifting or weight bearing uncomfortable.
Swelling, warmth, tenderness, or a sensation of instability can also appear.
If these symptoms interfere with work, sport, or daily activity, a physiotherapy assessment can help identify the source of the problem and create a plan to address it.
