Diagnosis
Our approach
The first step is always a medical consultation. Complementing this: clinical assessment by the physiotherapist. Ultrasound with Dr Massimo Donalisio to confirm and rule out an infectious origin (rare but never to be missed).
Care at Off-Field
- Physiotherapy (inflammation management, postural adaptation)
- Physical preparation (strengthening, protection)
- In coordination with Dr Massimo Donalisio when indicated: ultrasound-guided injection if needed
