I injured one of the tendons behind my knee while playing soccer. I lost balance and landed with all my weight on my leg. I made the mistake of leaving it alone for about a week, going to work and not resting it very well but after that I began bandaging it and taking Advil. It has been an other week (2 after the injury). It hurts a lot less and I can move it almost normally. It is only in some positions that I still feel real pain. I do feel stiff and a slight discomfort (as on a minor tendinitis). What should I do now? Should I keep bandaging and resting it? Should I exercise it? How long until I can go back to play soccer? Thanks for your help

its been three weeks and i already got advise from some people on here. if you have already answer my other question plz dont answer again. i fell three weeks ago and my leg is still bruised a little but it is still swollen and it hurts but i can walk. I fell on metal bleachers during PE but of course the guys had to be standing right there so i acted like nothing happened and didnt say anything but it is getting really anoying. Christmas is in like 2 days and i am getting a new skate board like thing and i really want to be able to ride it but i dont want to if it will make my leg worse. do you have any idea what i may have done. i kno its kinda hard to kno by just me typing but my parents wont listen to me and keep telling me its just a bruise and it will be gone in a few days. but they said that every day for three weeks...

I was at school and fell on the metal bleachers right on my shin. It hurt for a few days and went away but only for about a day. It has hurt for the past three weeks and i AM walking on but it hurts increasingly worse every day. I havent gone to the doctor because i absolutley HATE my doctor. It is still bruised and swollen and there is a VERY hard bump in the middle of the swelling. Can you give me some what of an idea of what i may have done to it?

1) I pulled (my thigh muscle) exactly 24 hours ago kickin a soccer ball,I felt a popping then I iced it immediately and took anti-inflammatories.

2) Initially it hurt to touch the bruised area but now i can massage it after icing with minimal to no discomfort.

3) I can voluntary bend my leg inwards with no pain, but cannot extend it outwards on its own, because it feels like i get an instant cramp on the spot i pulled the muscle and it hurts.

4) I can squat and stand with no pain (maybe because im not using that muscle)

5) After icing i've been taping it up with those elastic bandages like the ace ones.

6)I've been consuming plenty of proteins such as milk and dairy. Will it help speed up recovery, and what other food can take to help.

a) Is this a mild, moderate or severe tear/sprain.
b) What else can I do apart from R.I.C.E to speed up recovery
c) Any other USEFUL information that can help would be appreciated.

the tendon is down my finger part way. I am getting surgery for it next week. Has anyone else had this procedure? How long did it take to fully heal? I am in high school and my baseball season starts in mid febuary. I know I'll probably miss the begining of the season, but what can i expect? How long is the rehabilitation, and what is it like? How long will i be in a cast for?

How long do I have to wait before I can run again? I don't want to twist it again, but it's still tender when I put pressure on it or cross my legs, and I don't want to hurt it worse. And... what exercises can I do without hurting my ankle too much?

All day yesterday I had an eyelash in my eye. I get home, find out that it is in the far corner on my eye, not on the other corner where you find sleep and all that other junk. I try to get it out, but no luck. I use eyedrops but nothing happens. I submerge my eye in water, nothing happens. I try getting it out with my finger, and nothing happens. My eye is swollen as I speak and is extremely red (almost purple) and i do not know why. Was it because I was messing with my eye! I need help, I am very worried.

I've heard it's a condition called hematoma caused by improper blood insertion and that such an insertion can also cause permanent nerve damage. Is that true?
Should I notify my physician and when?

I felt a popping sensation as it happened. It hurts when i push down on the exact spot of skin, there is little bruising. I can bend my knee but cannot extend it outwards on its own without pain in that area. I want to know is this a Mild, Moderate or Severe pull/tear, because this has never happened to me before. Any USEFUL advice on recovery will be helpful.

Last week I did a reverse summer salt playing indoor soccer. I am healthy, 28 yr old male. no previous neck issues. about 4 days after the game, 2 small dime sized bumps appear on the left trap muscle. The barley protrude from the skin making it easy to spot. I can push on them and both are tender, but no major pain. Sleeping is no problem. I dont know what to do other than light neck stretches, and advil.

What do i do? Chiropracter, Doctor, Advil, Nothing? suggestions?

Carried in the groceries about 2 hours ago. In the left hand. A lot of them. Ever since, I have a sharp pain in the back, when bending or turning to the right.

Any ideas what this is?
