In the competitive world of sports, “playing through the pain” can often lead to more severe, long-term damage. Athletes in the New Jersey area should be alert for symptoms such as persistent aching after exercise, sudden swelling, localized tenderness over a bone, or a noticeable decrease in agility and strength. Many of our patients at Stepwell Institute experience “startup pain” that disappears during a workout but returns with increased intensity afterward. If you notice your performance slipping or an injury is preventing you from training at your full potential, a professional evaluation at Stepwell Institute is necessary to ensure an accurate diagnosis and prevent a minor strain from becoming a season-ending injury.
