“People with no comorbidities or no family history, aren’t at as much risk to initiate activities. Initiating activities doesn’t require much from the patient. The problem starts when people reach levels that require the body. So it’s worth the worth a thorough evaluation in an attempt to prevent certain injuries and pathologies, for example: sudden illness”, warns the orthopedic surgeon.
