- Stimulants e.g. nicotine and caffeine as they aggravate pain.
- Heavy lifting or pushing (supermarket trolleys can be particularly painful).
- Pushing through any pain. If something hurts, if possible don’t do it. If this type of pain is allowed to flare up, it can take a long time to settle back down again.
- Clinics that have you return for several visits without seeing improvement.
- Physical therapists who do not have proper training.
- Other facilities that have very aggressive stretching, exercises and massages.
