23.01.2022 With Melbourne’s lockdown easing, gyms reopening and sports clubs returning to training, we're finally able to get back into our rehab programs as well as exercise routines and classes. However, returning to exercise after an extended layoff carries several potential risks with regards to overload and injury. Taking a slow and structured approach can lead to a smoother, optimised return to fitness, as well as significantly reducing the risk of injury.

22.01.2022 Are you experiencing activity-related shin or calf pain? Have you been exercising more during lockdown? Or perhaps your exercise program is very different to what it would usually be? At Lifecare Prahran Sports Medicine we have been experiencing an increase in patients presenting with bone stress reactions as a result of changing activity and exercise routines. Despite being quite simple to manage if diagnosed and managed correctly, if ignored these can deteriorate further and turn into stress fractures. Chronic exertional compartment syndrome is another issue common to the area.
