Listen now
Description
The lower extremities must bear the weight of our whole bodies. Problems in the hip may cause a chain reaction of aches, imbalances, or chronic issues that could manifest in the knee, ankle, or somewhere else along the kinetic chain. Continuing our series on pain with Dr. Pradeep Chopra, we explore the hips, knees, ankles and feet, diving into multiple possible causes of issues in these joints. Dr. Chopra discusses why rolling of the ankles is unhealthy, even if it’s asymptomatic, explains how pain in one part of the leg may be due to an issue in a different joint, and explores why and how you might correct knee hyperextension. Dr. Chopra dives into the hip joint structure, outlining possible reasons for hip subluxation. He shares different ways to treat SI joint pain, and offers practical suggestions for dealing with multiple lower extremity pain issues. Filled with detailed information, accessible medical explanations, and Dr. Chopra’s popular “hack” tips, this episode belongs on your must-listen list! Learn more about Dr. Chopra here.
