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).

    • No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.
    • Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
