Zwibel Quoted in Outside

Hallie Zwibel, D.O., assistant dean of clinical operations and director of the Center for Sports Medicine, is quoted in an Outside magazine article on exercise-induced aches and pains. Zwibel explains that muscle soreness following a workout is typical and shouldn’t be cause for concern.

“After exercising, our muscles are inflamed,” he says. “If there’s no larger injury, this is normal and healthy. When the muscle heals after inflammation, it becomes stronger,” says Zwibel, who also recommended pain-relieving alternatives to Tylenol and ibuprofen.
