Cramping your style is an idiom used when you are asking someone if your activity is preventing them from acting naturally or enjoying their time. The idiom is believed to have started in the early 1900s as a saying to impede or restrict one’s actions or expression. The word cramp was used intentionally due to the pain caused by leg cramps. Leg cramps can definitely restrict your actions and style.

School is coming to an end, and summer is quickly approaching. This is a time for our children to relax, recharge and explore new environments. While our children are looking forward to sleeping in and lazy days, all children do better with structure and routine, especially those who have a diagnosis such as ADHD, Autism and Oppositional Defiant Disorder, who depend on structure. Even as adults, our routine provides consistency and stability and builds healthy habits. While we cannot recreate the structure found in school, ensuring our children are involved in activities throughout the summer months will help them to grow in numerous ways.

To manage musculoskeletal conditions, joint and soft tissue injections are widely used in pain management, primary care, orthopedic and rheumatologic settings. These procedures provide diagnostic clarity and therapeutic relief, offering patients a non-surgical option for pain management and inflammation control. For individuals with arthritis, bursitis, tendinitis or localized soft tissue injuries, injections can offer targeted relief and improve function, especially when conservative measures like rest, physical therapy and oral medications have not provided sufficient benefit.
