Cold weather can make joints feel stiff and uncomfortable. ❄️ Lower temperatures can reduce blood flow to joints and alter the viscosity of joint fluid, making movement more difficult. People with arthritis or previous joint injuries may notice these effects even more. To keep joints healthy and mobile during winter, stay active with regular exercise, warm up before physical activity, maintain proper hydration, and dress in layers to help preserve body heat. Consistently following these habits can reduce stiffness and protect joint function throughout the season.

Athletes are particularly at risk for labrum tears, which can compromise shoulder stability and affect performance. The labrum, a ring of cartilage, helps keep the shoulder joint secure during movement. When a tear occurs, common symptoms include pain, clicking, or a sensation of the shoulder “giving out.” Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are essential for a safe return to sports. Focusing on rotator cuff strength and proper mechanics can also help prevent future injuries.

Winter sports are exciting — but ACL injuries can happen fast if your knees aren’t prepared. 🏂⛷️
Before you hit the slopes or ice, remember:

✔️ Warm up and activate key muscle groups
✔️ Strengthen quads, hamstrings, and glutes for stability
✔️ Practice proper landing form and controlled movements
✔️ Listen to your body — fatigue increases injury risk

If something goes wrong, you don’t have to face it alone. At Dines Orthopedics, we’re dedicated to helping you recover and get back to what you love—whether you’re a competitive athlete or simply enjoying your favorite winter activities.

Colder temperatures can increase the risk of sports injuries by causing muscles and joints to become stiff and less flexible. A proper warm-up is essential to gradually raise your core body temperature, improve circulation, and prepare muscles and tendons for activity. Dynamic movements such as light cardio and sport-specific mobility drills are far more effective than static stretching alone. This preparation reduces the likelihood of strains, sprains, and overuse injuries—especially in the shoulders, knees, and back. As always, if you experience discomfort during or after an activity, we are here to help you recover safely and return to performance.

Elbow overuse injuries—like tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, and tendonitis—are common in both athletes and those with repetitive daily tasks. These conditions develop gradually from repeated stress on the tendons and joints, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced function. To keep your elbows healthy, focus on using proper technique during activity, taking regular breaks, and strengthening surrounding muscles like the forearm and shoulder. If elbow pain persists or interferes with your daily life, a consultation with Dines Orthopedics can help prevent further damage and guide your recovery.
