Pain relieved by rest
Pain relieved by rest suggests that activity or weight-bearing aggravates the affected area. The body's tissues get a chance to recover when you stop moving. This is common in mechanical joint problems and overuse injuries. Common causes include osteoarthritis (mechanical pain), tendinitis or overuse injuries and stress fractures.
