Hip and Knee Problems in Dogs. Release These Muscles

It is common for dogs to get knee and hip injuries. These injuries can range from acute to chronic and are very painful to slightly sore.

When the knee or hip joint is injured and inflamed, it is important to release the muscles that cross the joint and help to produce movement in the joint.

When the joint is injured the same muscles that help to produce movement can tighten. This muscle tightness or muscle spasm can be very obvious but most of the time it's very subtle and can lead to compression and muscle guarding around the injured area.

This can cause a decreased range of motion and therefore increase the likelihood of further joint degeneration at an increased rate.

In this video, Dr. Adam shows you a simple way to landmark and stretch the groin muscles that act on the hip and knee.
