On today's episode I answer Mark's submitted question: "I would like to understand how an injured/damaged/weak tendon can go on to cause such widespread symptoms? In addition to tendon pain, I get chronic muscle tightness in my hamstring, thigh, calf, hip, groin and buttock. Also, get nerve pain throughout the whole leg. These symptoms get particularly worse through a flare-up. It can be hard to remain focused on the rehab with such widespread symptoms and feel it would help keep the focus of having an understanding of why it does this?" Firstly, I discuss the components of 'chronic muscle tightness' and certain explanations for these symptoms. Next, we dive into nerve pain and chronic pain to help understand why these symptoms may occur.  Lastly, I give my final tips all to do with widespread symptoms.  Click here to learn more about the PHT video course & to receive your 50% discount If you would like to learn more about having Brodie on your rehab team go to www.runsmarter.online  Or book a free 20-min physio chat here
