ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- Are you itching to get back outside as spring finally comes around?

Did you know that it's very common to get injured when starting up activity after winter?

After months of colder weather and more sedentary routines, the body isn't always ready for sudden increases in activity. That means many people unintentionally end up sidelined by common springtime injuries.

The good news? With the right awareness and proactive care, can stay active all season without being held back by pain. In this article, we'll discuss some common springtime injuries, and how chiropractic care can help.

Most Common Injuries People See in Early Spring

When folks jump back into activity after the winter months, certain injuries tend to pop up more often. These usually stem from tight muscles, weakened stabilizers, limited mobility, or spinal misalignment from long periods of inactivity. Common springtime injuries include:

1. Strains & Sprains

Quick starts without proper warm-ups can cause the muscles and connective tissues to overreach or tear. Common examples include:

• Hamstring or calf strains from running
• Ankle sprains on uneven trails
• Knee ligament irritation from quick direction changes

These often come with pain, swelling, or limited range of motion.

2. Lower Back Pain

• Low back stiffness or spasms
• Pain when bending, lifting, or twisting
• Flare-ups during yard work or lifting gardening gear

Misalignment or imbalance in the spine often contributes to these symptoms.

3. Tendonitis

Repetitive activities like biking, tennis, or increased walking can inflame tendons, especially in the:

• Achilles tendon
• Shoulders (rotator cuff)
• Elbows (tennis or golfer's elbow)

Even moderate activity increases can aggravate these tendons if the body isn't ready.
