Bartlett IL Chiropractic process" you may put more pressure on the other leg in order to reduce the pain in the injured knee. If you carry yourself in this way for an extended period of time, which is likely when healing from the injury, you may unknowingly develop back problems down the road. Not only that, but when you don't use your injured knee for a while you will end up losing muscle mass on that leg and increasing muscle mass on the other. In addition, continuous hopping can develop bad posture, which in turn leads to lower back pain and neck pain.
