Talk to your doctor about exercising with pain

Being in pain doesn't necessarily mean you should avoid exercise. Depending on the type of pain you have, it could even help. Just don't overdo it! Work with your doctor to find ways to continue participating in physical activities you enjoy. Most people living with chronic pain can exercise safely, and it can assist with pain management. In fact, being inactive can sometimes lead to a cycle of more pain and loss of function. Remember to listen to your body when exercising and participating in physical activities. Avoid over-exercising on "good days." If something doesn't feel right or hurts, seek medical advice right away. Learn more about exercising with pain from Go4Life.
