When a body is injured it develops scar tissue, which can leave the body feeling stiff and affected by lack of movement. Once scar tissue grows thick and firm, the affected muscle becomes shorter and weaker which causes pain and leaves the muscle prone to further injury. This also puts unnecessary tension on tendons, which can result in tendinitis.
Symptoms include:
- Reduced range of motion
- Reduced flexibility
- Soreness and stiffness
