NHS Inform provides formation, advice and tips to people with muscle or joint problems:

Musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders covers any injury, disease or problem relating to our muscles, bones or joints and are very common.

Over a million people visit their GP with a musculoskeletal disorder in Scotland each year.

The Musculosketal Zone has been developed with the help of patients, physiotherapists and doctors to bring together the best possible information and advice for preventing, treating and recovering from musculoskeletal disorders at home and in the workplace.

The MSK Zone also offers an app, available on Google Play and the Apple App Store.
