DOCTOR OR PHYSIO 🤔

SHOULD I VISIT MY DOCTOR OR A PHYSIOTHERAPIST FOR MY INJURY?
Almost everyone will experience some kind of injury at some time, whether it is due to tripping or falling, overuse, a degenerative condition or a sports injury.

WHO TO SEE FOR YOUR INJURY😟
Whether you go to see a doctor or a physiotherapist about your injury depends on various factors. Naturally a severe injury needs the attention of an emergency doctor without delay, but for many injuries, visiting your doctor or a physiotherapist can be the best choice. Which you choose can be a matter of personal preference. Traditionally, a doctor would be the first port of call, but all too often a doctors will refer a patient with an injury directly to a physiotherapist without a formal diagnosis. In the case of sports injuries, your doctor is likely to refer you to a Physio for further diagnosis and treatment.

DIAGNOSIS 🙋
Both physiotherapists and doctors are able to diagnose your injury. Like doctors, physiotherapists are “first contact” practitioners so they do not need a referral from a doctor in order to examine, diagnose and treat injuries. In effect, it is unimportant as to who carries out the diagnosis provided that it is made and you are clearly informed with regard to the diagnosis.

TREATMENT 😊
Treatment of your injury also depends upon the specific injury, and both your doctor and physiotherapist can share input into this. In the case of musculoskeletal injuries, the physiotherapist will often possess a more extensive set of skills and is able to offer “hands on” treatment.
Hands-on manual therapy for injuries is a form of treatment that physiotherapists rather than doctors are trained to administer. It can involve massage, stretching and strengthening exercises which re-educate the muscles and joints so that proper mechanics and movements are re-established.💪
