Question:
Arthritic condition caused by layoff?
Hi - I had a heel injury last August and had to lay off from my tennis
and other activities. I became very sedentary as I wanted to stay off my
feet until my heel was healed. In October I started a very slow training
regimen and by November I was over the heel injury completely and started
playing serious tennis once again. Soon, I started having an issue in
my upper thigh/hip area. A pain in this area caused me some weakness
and impacted my ability to push off and move like I used to in the past.
I had an xray in this area and the doctor said that I had some mild
arthritis. My question is the following:
Could my layoff from all physical activity caused this condition to
blossom? Prior to my heel injury, I never had an issue in my hip/thigh
area. I am 70 years old.
