These free sports injury tools are built by the team at Impact Sports Rehabilitation to help you make sensible decisions between appointments: how long an injury might take, what could be causing your pain, whether you need A&E or a physio, and when you are really ready to go back. Each one gives you an instant answer, with the reasoning explained.
Every tool runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you enter is stored or sent anywhere, there is no login and no email gate, and you get your result instantly on the page.

Think of these tools as a knowledgeable friend who happens to be a sports therapist: useful for a sensible starting point and for knowing which questions to ask, but not a replacement for being properly examined. None of them diagnose, and every result is general guidance rather than a prediction for your individual case.
If you have sudden severe pain, a visible deformity, cannot bear any weight, have numbness or loss of feeling, signs of infection, chest pain, or a head injury with confusion, vomiting or loss of consciousness, please skip the tools and go to A&E or call 999. For everything else, when a tool suggests an assessment, a rehabilitation consultation is the natural next step. We are based in Eccles, near Salford, Trafford and Manchester, and offer online consultations too.
Want a plan built around your injury rather than a general guide? Book a rehabilitation consultation with Impact Sports Rehabilitation in Eccles, or online.
The tools on this page from Impact Sports Rehabilitation are for general educational purposes only. They do not diagnose any condition and are not a substitute for professional medical diagnosis, advice or treatment. For any red flag symptoms, go to A&E or call 999.
