Title: Injured....
Post by: The1BigWillie on April 28, 2009, 08:27:20 PM

tomorrow night I will miss my first game (competitive, rec, pick up, etc) due to injury since I was 12 years old.  I'm am truly depressed and for the first time feel old and incapable.  Does anyone know what I can do to get through this?  Something popped below my calf this afternoon playing ball after grabbing a rebound.  I can walk on it but I can't flex/tighten my left calf like I can my right and it's painful to put pressure on it.  So scared.  So bummed.   :suicideispainless:

Show up and do what you can for the team.



Translation: bring beer for everyone.

I know exactly how you feel.  After my unfortunate scooter wreck, I wasn't able to sit comfortably at a bar stool for nearly a month.

I did the same thing playing soccer a few years ago -- torn calf muscle.  You'll be out several weeks and all you can do is rest, elevate and ice it.

I was back to normal activity afterwards, but now I sure as hell remember to warm up and stretch a bit more after feeling that muscle pop back there.
