A member asked:
Is it okay to run/swim through soreness? also, how many days does it usually take for sore muscles to stop being painful?

Depends on injury: it is always wise to be certain whatever injury you have before you think about exercising through it. Your physician can help clarify what type of injury you have and whether it's safe to continue to exercise or whether you should hesitate and let things heal
