Director & Sports Physiotherapist, Frank Care, answers your question: “I have recently taken up running but want to make sure I do everything right with my recovery. What should I make sure I do? “

“I was playing footy the other day and I noticed I’m getting sharp pain along the inside/outside of my knee. I think it started when I changed direction chasing the ball. I think I may have twisted my knee while turning. Sometimes while I’m walking I feel my knee give way and sometimes when I try to bend it, it locks in place! What’s going on with my knee?”

“Recently, I have been having difficulty lifting my arm above my head due to both pain and weakness. This particularly makes my job as a painter difficult as majority of my work is done overhead. I notice the pain is also worse at the end of the day and at night when sleeping on that side. What have I done? I don’t remember any incident that would have triggered the shoulder pain.” Read on for the answer from our very own Physiotherapist, Olivia Yin.
