The Devastating Impact of Running Injuries on Dedicated Runners
If you’re serious about running, we know how devastating it can be sidelined by an injury. For many, running becomes an important part of life. Some love getting that runner’s high, while others enjoy the challenge, competition, or strength and discipline that running creates. Many run to stay fit and healthy, while others appreciate how it builds confidence and character; some simply enjoy the act of running itself. However, running-related injuries are common and can be difficult to overcome if you don’t receive the right help. If you are a dedicated runner, losing the ability to get out there and run can feel like losing a part of yourself.
What Are The Common Symptoms To Look Out For?
Most commonly, runners develop knee, leg, ankle, or foot pain, but hip and back pain can also occur. There are many factors to consider when a runner develops an injury, including but not limited to training errors, strength deficits, poor flexibility, biomechanics, nutrition and hydration, footwear, training surfaces, terrain, and more. Figuring out these factors on your own can be a challenge, and often, you’ll receive care from a clinician who treats the pain without addressing the underlying cause. As a result, the pain keeps coming back.

Addressing the Root Cause for Long-Term Relief from Running Pain
While medications, injections, or various treatments may provide temporary relief, failing to correct the root cause of the problem will only lead to recurring pain. You might recover from one overuse injury only to develop another if your risk factors and deficits weren’t addressed with the first injury. At Campbell Physical Therapy & Wellness, we not only treat the pain but also the underlying cause. We help runners recover from injuries and become more resilient than before so that they can stay healthy and continue doing what they love.
