Physiotherapy Or Sports Injury Forum?

[dave3745]

I've turned what felt previously like just a weak thigh into a real injury - some sort of thigh strain. I can't have face to face NHS physio to diagnose and treat; I appreciate that, but it's difficult to get correct diagnosis in a limited time on the phone to the NHS designated service supplier, and then action plan. Spent hours on google searches, but I thought there'd be somewhere a forum where athletes/sportspeople could describe symptoms and share advice. Anyone know of such UK forums?

Not a forum but an independent UK-based site where you might find relevant information:

Thanks. There's certainly some info I can see already on here which I haven't come across elsewhere.

no but take a look at Bob and Brad on Youtube. They are two excellent physios and help you to self diagnose and treat. https://www.youtube.com/user/physicaltherapyvideo

Physical therapy is a great option for recovery from sports injuries. If you have a hip sprain, in addition to medication, your doctor should prescribe physical therapy treatments. Therapeutic exercises and techniques can help to relieve pain and restore muscle and joint function. Some of these therapies can also prevent pain from returning. A proper physical therapy plan will help you recover your muscles and joints and return to sports. Drug treatment is not always effective, so it is better to support it with physical therapy. These procedures will help you not only to get rid of the pain but also to improve the health of your whole body.
