I think I pulled a thigh muscle but I am too fat to know if it would be swollen...but I took a really hard fall and landed a weird way and when i got up my outter thigh right under my hip had this shooting pain. Should I go to urgent care or are they not going to be able to do anything for me? I have tons of pain meds from when I got my wisdom teeth out so I am set on that but should I go to see if I broke something or tore something or would I know and be screaming in pain right now if I did? Please help I wanna be better by tommorow ):
i doubt you broke anything...you'd know if you did, it'd be excruciating pain. might be a really bad pull, could be a slight tear, might have messed up some tendons...i would get it checked out though
awwwweeeeeee cute picture Chris. I love it!!! I am icing it right now and took a viccodin and some ib profin. I just don't know how to tell Katie ): We were supossed to spend the weekend in san diego got a hotel room and everything ):
how'd you fall? like what were you doing? yea, keep icing and try to compress it... hopefully you'll still be able to hang with katie, i dont' see why not if its nothing bad.
they're prettty tough musles in your thigh, so I doubt you tore anything by just fallng. its probably part bruise part strain. been there many times basicly you best too ice it for 20 min at at a time. You can also take advill (iboprofin) at 600-800mg. below 400mg it just acts as mild pain killler, above it, its anti inflamitory properties start to kick in. nomal advill pills are usually 200mg, but read the box first. and consult a doctor if you want too. and when get you better, start exersicing and stretching, you'll find you wont get hurt so easy if you keep it up
good clean breaks can actually hurt far less than torn tissue or sprains or cracks or just a light fracture. I have had my fair share of broken and torn shit in my life, just still looking for that miracle cure like you are. Ice it, elevate, movement in water to keep weight off of it but avoids it getting stiff. Sex when its healed 2x a day for a month as PT, lol
well I didn't break or fracture anything. They think I just landed weird and sprained my hip flexor muscle and landed on my hip pretty hard...it is all purple already): and I'm on crutches so that kinda bites. They gave me a script for flexeral and told me to take IB profin it is really swollen they thought I fractured my hip but I am lucky I didn't.
thats good. bummer on the crutches. what kinda tearin SD up were ya priming for? Clubbing? Surfin? Sand Castle Contest?
thats good you didn't break or fracture anything. i still wouldn't want to do somethign to my hip flexor muscle though...ouch now don't do what i did, use the crutches
