What Comes First? Pain Or Posture?

This is a chicken or egg scenario. ⁠
⁠
Did you get injured because of your posture?⁠
Or is your posture because of an injury?⁠
⁠
This concept comes from @greglehman. He originally mentioned the thought process from leg injuries. ⁠
⁠
Basic idea is that people start to limp due to a lower limb injury. They don’t get a lower leg injury from limping. ⁠
⁠
So why do you have the posture that you have? ⁠
Maybe it’s because you’ve adapted to a specific way of moving. ⁠
Or maybe it’s because of a response to an event, and your body has now adopted a new position (or posture) in response to it.
