I recently did a webcam consultation with an athlete who has had a lot of trouble for a long time. He was very, very athletic. He started having pain and a whole lot of trouble that ensued afterwards that severely changed his athletic picture in only a couple of years.
After years of seeing experts and not getting any better, he asked me to help him to do a second opinion and help him reassess where he was and what he might be able to do.
The way I think about this is really simple. Many of the bad things that happen after the original injury are because of compensation or your body trying to keep pressure off of that worst injury that happened first.
So, I always tried to address that first injury, first!
