Sprains, strains, back & joint pain explained
Ligaments, muscles, the spine and joints each cause a distinct kind of pain. Use this quick guide to understand your injury before you call us.
A ligament stretched too far or torn — commonly the ankle, wrist or knee from a twist, fall or awkward landing · pain, swelling and bruising · graded 1 (overstretched) to 3 (complete tear with instability).
A pulled or torn muscle or tendon — often the hamstring, quadriceps, lower back or shoulder from lifting, sprinting or overuse · pain, swelling and reduced strength · acute or chronic.
Affects about 80% of adults at some point — from muscle strain, poor posture, lifting, disc herniation or spinal stenosis · can radiate down the leg (sciatica / nerve pain) when a nerve is compressed.
Pain in one or more joints — osteoarthritis (worn cartilage in knees, hips, hands), rheumatoid arthritis, gout, bursitis and tendonitis · from mild ache to severe, movement-limiting pain.
What happens during your home visit
When to call a doctor
Visible deformity (possible dislocation or fracture) · a loud pop with loss of use · numbness or tingling below the injury · cold, pale or blue skin · severe pain despite rest and ice · unable to bear any weight after an ankle or knee injury.
Loss of bladder or bowel control (possible cauda equina) · progressive leg weakness or numbness · back pain with fever (possible spinal infection) · sudden severe pain after a fall — seek care immediately, day or night.
A hot, swollen, red joint with fever (possible septic arthritis) · sudden severe joint pain, especially with fever or recent illness · a joint locked or unable to move after injury · swelling worsening over hours.
For life-threatening emergencies (severe breathing difficulty, chest pain, loss of consciousness) call 999 immediately.
