Dear Sir/Madam,

We extend our sincere gratitude for choosing Gleneagles Hospital Malaysia for your healthcare requirements.

Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the arm pain you've experienced after playing badminton.

It sounds like you might be dealing with muscle strain or overuse, which can happen after resuming physical activities after a period of rest.

We recommend the following steps to manage the discomfort:

1. Rest: Allow your arm to rest and avoid strenuous activity to prevent further strain.
2. Ice Application: Apply an ice pack to the affected area for 15-20 minutes every 2-3 hours to reduce inflammation and pain.
3. Gentle Stretching: Once the acute pain has subsided, you may gently stretch the muscles to improve mobility.

If the pain persists or worsens, we advise consulting a healthcare professional to rule out any serious injuries such as tendonitis, ligament sprain, or muscle tears.

Any advice, recommendations, or information provided by the Company, its affiliates, employees, moderators, medical practitioners, and representatives within the Forum is not to be taken as conclusive advice. It is intended as a suggestion and not a substitute for consulting with qualified medical practitioners. Users are encouraged to seek professional advice tailored to their specific circumstances.
