Sharp pain at the back of your thigh during sport or activity may indicate a hamstring muscle strain or tear.

This injury occurs when the hamstring muscle fibres are overstretched or torn and is common in football, netball, hockey and athletics.

A hamstring strain can happen while sprinting or running, during excessive stretching such as gymnastics or ballet, or as the result of a fall.

Risk factors include older age, previous hamstring injury, poor muscle strength, local muscle fatigue, strength imbalances and lower back tightness or injury.

If you think you’ve done something to your hammy, it’s best to get it checked by one of our qualified physiotherapists as soon as you can.

Pain in your hip, groin, thigh or buttock?

It may be Hip Osteoarthritis (Hip OA) - where cartilage breaks down, creating rough and uneven joint surfaces.

Hip OA can cause:

• Pain with weight-bearing
• Pain when sleeping
• Deep or sharp pain
• Stiffness and limited movement

Risk factors include age, obesity, manual labour or sport, previous joint injury and genetics.

Your physiotherapist can help manage symptoms through individualised exercise programs, low-impact activity options, manual therapy, soft-tissue therapy, taping and advice to reduce stiffness and inflammation.

Pain, swelling or tenderness around your knee?

It may be a degenerative meniscal tear - damage to the meniscus that helps with rotational stability and shock absorption in your knee.

Common signs can include:

• Pain when bending the knee
• Swelling
• Tenderness around the joint
• Restricted movement

This type of tear often develops gradually due to degeneration of the meniscus, knee joint osteoarthritis, previous injury or increased load through the knee.

How physiotherapy can help:

A physiotherapist will assess your knee, and as symptoms settle, treatment focuses on restoring movement and strength with a specific, graduated rehabilitation program.

Tight band around your head? Aching neck or shoulders?

You may be experiencing a Cervicogenic (Tension) Headache - the most common type of headache, often linked to tightness in the neck joints and surrounding muscles.

These headaches can be triggered by:

• Poor posture or desk setup
• Stress, tiredness or long hours of concentration
• Awkward sleeping positions
• Neck or spine injuries
• Extended periods of reading, typing or screen use

Physiotherapy can help relieve pain and reduce how often these headaches occur through gentle neck mobilisation, soft tissue release, dry needling, posture correction, ergonomic advice and targeted exercises.

✋ Aching, weakness, pins and needles or numbness in your wrist or hand?

You may be experiencing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

This condition occurs when the median nerve becomes compressed within the carpal tunnel, a narrow passage in your wrist that houses tendons and nerves running from your forearm to your hand.

Here’s what you should know 👇

✅ Symptoms: Pain, tingling or numbness in the wrist, hand or fingers, often worse at night.

✅ Causes: Repetitive use, direct trauma, or inflammation in the wrist (common in desk jobs, trades and racquet sports).

✅ Physio treatment: Assessment, soft tissue therapy, gentle flexibility and strengthening, wrist splinting (especially overnight) and ergonomic advice.

✅ Recovery: Mild cases can settle within weeks with physiotherapy and rest; more chronic cases may take longer and occasionally require further medical input.

Early diagnosis and treatment make a big difference in recovery and in preventing long-term weakness.
