When something hurts, the natural reaction is to stop moving.
But when you avoid movement for too long, your body doesn’t get safer — it actually becomes more sensitive.
Your nervous system starts to interpret normal movement as a threat, so it creates pain more easily.
That’s why small things can start to feel worse instead of better.
This doesn’t mean you should push through pain.
It means the body needs the right kind of movement to calm things down and rebuild confidence.
Pain often lasts longer when movement stops.
