See a doctor When:
Soreness lingers for more then 4 days
You are having difficulty walking, sleeping, or doing daily activities
Pain is not getting better Why:
Serious problems can develop very quickly is an injury is not treated properly
The sooner you are treated, the sooner you can get back to 100%
Also…Avoid exercise pain by starting slow and gradually easing back into exercise
See a personal trainer to ensure you’re performing exercises correctly
Get serious
Plan exercise into your schedule Keep your “exercise” appointment 60 minutes a day (break up into four 15 min
segments if you have to) Use every trick in the book to get a few more
minutes of exercise each dayPark your car farther from the door
Take the stairs whenever possible
Walk or bike instead of driving Remember: Exercise will give you more energy
