Understanding Pain Response and Damage Perception

Feeling pain during movement or exercise does not always mean further damage is occurring. Sensitivity or discomfort does not necessarily indicate worsening conditions. Assessing how the body responds after exercise can help determine if the load placed was too much or appropriate. It is crucial to break the cycle of fear, avoidance, and rest to prevent decreased capacity and heightened pain sensitivity.
