Gym Injury Clinic in Bromley – Shoulder, Elbow, Knee & Lower Back Pain Experts

Welcome to the Gym Injury Clinic at Bromley Sports Injury Clinic, where we help active people recover fast and safely from gym-related injuries. Whether it’s shoulder strain from bench pressing, elbow pain from curls, knee discomfort from squats, or lower back pain from deadlifts, our experienced team uses Diagnostic Musculoskeletal Ultrasound to diagnose issues quickly and accurately.

 

The Most Common Gym Injuries We See

Working out is good for your health — but poor technique, overload, or lack of recovery can lead to injury. At our Bromley clinic, we regularly treat:

  • Shoulder pain – rotator cuff strains, bursitis, impingement

  • Elbow pain – tendinopathy, tennis/golfer’s elbow

  • Knee pain – patellar tendinitis, meniscus irritation, ligament strain

  • Lower back pain – postural overload, lumbar strain, disc irritation

 

We specialise in real-time ultrasound imaging of the shoulder, elbow, and knee — a fast, accurate and affordable way to confirm injuries without the long MRI wait.

FAQs – Gym Injuries & Diagnosis

Q1: What causes shoulder pain in the gym?
Lifting overhead, bench pressing, or poor form can irritate the rotator cuff tendons. We use ultrasound to spot inflammation, tears, or impingement.

Q2: I’ve got elbow pain when lifting – what could it be?
This could be tendinopathy or a muscle strain. Our elbow ultrasound scan helps identify the exact tendon involved so you can recover faster.

Q3: How do you diagnose knee pain from squats or running?
We offer real-time knee ultrasound to check for patellar tendon strain, fluid, or soft tissue damage.

Q4: What if my lower back hurts after lifting?
We assess spinal mobility, muscular strain, and core engagement patterns — and advise on safe return-to-training options. If needed, we refer for MRI.

Q5: Do I need a referral from my GP?
Not at all. You can book directly with us and usually be seen within a few days.
