Muscle and joint injuries
Joints help connect different parts of the bone structure together while muscles consist of soft tissues that contract, allowing the body to move in a particular way. The Human body is prone to accidents, and the most common type of joint injury results in a strain, fracture, or dislocation. Also, genetic, chronic, and autoimmune conditions are a major reason behind affecting muscles and joints.
These issues can be:
- Osteoarthritis

- Achilles tendon injuries
- Runner’s knee
- Polymyalgia rheumatica
- Fibromyalgia
