Sports Injuries
Many athletes, both amateur and
professional, suffer injuries at some point during
their career.
One of the most common problems
experienced are musculoskeletal injuries as a
consequence of jogging. The patella (kneecap) is
especially vulnerable to overuse injuries.
Although athletes should take good
care to prevent injury by selecting a suitable
running shoe, discarding the shoe once its mileage
exceeds 500-600 miles, resting between training
sessions, and doing adequate warm-up/cool-down
exercises, sometimes injuries are
unavoidable
Publications Acumed
I was a keen runner, going out about
five times a week. Unfortunately, running on tarmac
took its toll, and the knee pain I experienced forced
me to stop. Since using ACUMED™,
I have started low level jogging three times a week.
I take care of myself, and try to run on grass, and
I'm glad to say,
I'm pain free

"Typing at the computer caused me
immense pain in the lower arms and wrists. Both arms
had swollen up considerably, and I found myself
taking pain relief more often so that I could
complete a day's work. I
don't know how things would have
gone, had I not discovered"
