Do You Need Physical Therapy or Just Time? 🤕

If you’re dealing with pain or an injury, you might wonder: Should I see a Physical Therapist or just take it easy? Here’s how to tell!

Time Might Be Enough If:

✅ The pain is mild and goes away in a few days
✅ You can still move without much discomfort
✅ Ice, heat, gentle stretching, and modifying activity helps

You Might Need Physical Therapy If:

🚨 Pain lasts more than a few weeks or keeps coming back
🚨 You have trouble moving, walking, or doing daily tasks
🚨 The injury feels worse with activity instead of better
🚨 You notice swelling, weakness, or instability

A physical therapist can help guide you through your issue and give you confidence in moving again!  If you’re not sure, it’s always best to check with a pro!
