(Seems to me that all injuries should heal after 3 days. Well, ok - 4 days for "bad" ones....) D001 - 2007-12-08 8:21 PM barqhead - 2007-12-08 9:13 PM Good evening Nibbs! Looks like folks got some good workouts in today. Not me, of course, but just had to cheer on those that did! I did some wimpy stuff. Thought about going swimming, but the shoulder was twinging. So I decided to give it a rest day..... This is highly unusual for me. Generally, I just go first, and think (or suffer) later. really???? i hadn't noticed that - LOL good job in listening to your body! If you keep doing that, your shoulder might just get better! LMAO - yep I couldn't agree more unfortunatley I think tendonitis can take weeks to heal from what I've read, anywhere from 4 - 10 weeks (or longer) I'm still having problems with my hip and I injured it the first week of September. But I was a bad girl and still ran on it for two more weeks. During mile 4 of an oly tri, it let me know enough was enough. And here I am, second week in December, still unable to run. Be careful, Dee. Very, very careful. Hm. My shoulder started hurting just after the September Challenge. After years of not swimming, I logged 28900 yards that month. It felt really good!.... Until the first week of October, that is.... So your hip is still bothering you? What did the doctor say? |

See, I'm on an ultra high deductible insurance plan and it's really close to the end of the year... But I have been working with my chiropractor and a sports massage guy (less expensive than an MRI). My chiro believes that if I continue not to stress it and stretch and massage regularly, it will be okay. Most of the time, I don't have pain anymore. Just when I started to run last month, it became inflamed again. Chiro said that meant it wasn't healed. If I'm still bothered after the first of the year, will probably break down and see an MD. |
