You may experience knee or foot pain<\/a> without remembering that you have injured it. Well, it might be coming from the joint above or below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our body is connected in a way that one joint may have an effect on the other if dysfunction arises and joints are not moving<\/a> properly as it should.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is a scenario, you have a muscle spasm in your low back and you are leaning towards one side when you walk. What that ultimately does is putting more weight on one knee when you limp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, muscles adapt to new movements fairly quickly. A week of limping may be enough to allow the knee muscles to work differently and puts different pressure onto the knee joint<\/a> itself. As time goes by long after your back spasm recovers, you may notice that you get the occasional knee soreness<\/a> and that might be because your joints and muscles are just used to move in the improper way.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conversely, if you have a history of multiple ankle injuries and the ligaments are weaker, this may affect the way you walk and in turn, affect your pelvic alignment!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Whatever it is, having a check-up from a qualified chiropractor<\/a> can help you understand your biomechanics better and improve your overall function sooner<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
