Huddle Doctors And Those Who Pretend To Be Doctors

Recommended Posts

I have a torn calf muscle. It happend a month ago. I can barely walk one day and then will be 100% the next. Well after debating on playing softball this year because of it I went ahead and played and it was reinjured right away. I can jog with a lot of pain but not run. What should I do to heal this?

Can I expect to be able to play next week? In all of my sports career I've been lucky to not have to deal with any injuries. Please help because I hit a home run tonight but was limping around like a retard.

Treatment is non-surgical. In most instances treatmetn includes limiting muscle-loading activities, wearing a boot (Cam Walker), and using crutches in the short term, before progressing to physical therapy exercises aiming to regain full range of motion and muscular strength. Significant improvement can be expected within the first two weeks, but full recovery can take up to 6-8 weeks. It may take many more months to regain muscle mass in the calf that had been lack of use.

I can say this. I never understood when a Panther player got hurt but was walking around completely fine on the sidelines. "He will be fine." Now I know you can walk around with a lot of pain and seem normal but have a bad unjury.

Don't use it...allow it to heal.

Tell the coach you can play but no hard running and you'll need a pinch runner. Put in batting order behind some fast guys that can come in for you (our rule is guy who made last out). And be sure the lineup doesn't have two hurt dudes close together so if you have to...get lucky and spread the pinch runner across two innings (in our league...only one pinch per inning).

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
