Back pain is very common and normally improves within 6-12 weeks👍

✨Keep positive, these are the Novus 6 rules of back pain that you can do to help your symptoms improve.✨

1. If you keep moving, even slowly at first, you’ll recover faster.

2. It’s important to avoid bed rest during the day.
3. Find the most comfortable position for your back, but don’t sit or drive for too long.
4. Use anti-inflammatories such as ibuprofen with or without paracetamol as they can help you to remain active, which helps you recover quicker. Remember to check they are safe for you. If you are not sure or struggling to manage your pain, then speak with a pharmacist.
5. Remember to stay active – re-introducing heavy or repetitive lifting slowly at first.
6. Get some exercise – you could try light exercise like walking or swimming, or try some of the simple exercises below.

If your back pain persists, or you are not sure what to do, you can self-refer into our service to see one of our physitherapist here- https://physiowakefield.co.uk/physiotherapy-self-referral/

Do you know the common signs of hearing loss? ❓

👂 Difficulty following conversations
👂 Frequently asking others to repeat themselves
👂 Turning the TV up louder than usual
👂 Ringing or buzzing in your ears

Hearing loss can develop gradually, which means many people may not realise their hearing has changed until it starts affecting everyday life, communication and confidence. Getting assessed early can help you access the right support and treatment sooner.

If any of these signs sound familiar, speak with your GP today about a referral to our Adult Hearing Loss Service 🩵

Ankle pain can be a symptom of many different conditions.

Sometimes it is difficult to know what is causing the ankle to be painful, as there may not have been an obvious reason. Often, an ankle can become painful a few days after doing an activity that is different for you. This may have been something simple, such as a longer time spent walking or standing.🦶

For some people, their ankle pain may be the result of an injury sustained whilst playing sport or from a fall or awkward twist on the ankle.

Most ankle problems will start to improve within 8-24 weeks.

If your ankle pain persists, or you are not sure what to do, you can self-refer below to see one of our physiotherapists who can help you with your problem. 🧡

Pain in the lower back is particularly common and most of the time does not mean you have damaged your back. Pain can be felt anywhere along the spine, from the neck down to the hips and in some cases into the leg (sciatica). There is often no obvious specific cause or trigger to the back pain. Some people will describe doing something to cause their symptoms but for most people the symptoms will start for no particular reason.

You are the best person to help your back get better.

If your back pain persists, or you are not sure what to do, you can self-refer to see one of our physiotherapists who can help you with your problem.🧡
