Celebrated my 7th annual 29th birthday this week. Last year I got an old-man knee pain type scare (could hardly go up the steps in my own house), turns out I still needed to wear the orthotics like I got back in high school and not doing so lead to serious weakness and stress in weird places. After a year of self-directed correction exercises (and proper shoe inserts) I'm now very judgemental of everyone's posture.

Agile Vector posted:I know everyone is different but the powerstep inserts did a lot for me, to the point where not wearing them leads to discomfort a few days later In the old days they'd make a mold of your foot and sculpt them, these days you just stand on a scanny machine and it tells you all about your feet/balance (like how I had 12% more weight favoring one side than the other...)

DiggityDoink posted:i slept funny one night last december and it hosed up my right arm for a month solid. it was like a stabbing nerve pain that went from my shoulder blade down to my wrist. i went to the doctor for it a few times and all they did was give me prescription strength ibuprofen, it did nothing. Likely your posture is really bad and your regular movements are putting the joint in a bad place. Check your ergonomics too.

Speaking of posture, if you're a computer toucher it is highly likely yours is terrible Stand at a wall (or whiteboard), mark your height. Then stand up straight and do it again. Then measure both. I did this a year ago and found 1) standing up straight gave me half an inch of instant height, and 2) both heights were about an inch shorter than I remembered being. One year later, with like 2 workouts a week including corrective exercises, my doctor measured me at the tallest height I've ever been (and I'm 35 years old). That's an inch and a half taller than the lower measurement a year ago. People tell me I've "lost weight" but the actual number hasn't changed.

CRIP EATIN BREAD posted:that just means you arent working out that muscle group enough However, you can still get soreness even if you're a gym rat when you train in particular ways (which aren't necessarily bad ways). Slow eccentric movements (the backwards recovery part) in particular are both: - a good way to ensure good form and build muscle - occasionally get sore the next day even though you thought you grew out of that At least, that's what I think I've learned from attempts at internet research

My knee was hella weak and hurting going up a couple steps. My doctor gave me some orthotics to wear in my shoes and a few rehab exercises and now it's completely better Your knees are probably weak and your gait is slightly wrong. Correct yo step and do the PT.
