Goju_boi Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 hellow my ppl'z. About 2 weeks ago I was at my dojo and I was stretching before class. I was finishing it up with the splits and I was going for my 4th set to be done with everything. When I lowered myself down I went all the way down. All of a sudden I heard and felt my bones in my pelvis area on my right leg go "crack." I got up and felt extreme pain and couldn't practice comfortably for the rest of the night and to this day too. What I want to know is what went wrong if I'm flexible enough to do this? And how can I fix this myself? or if i should see a doctor? This really annoys me since I can't go all out and stretch like before. https://www.samuraimartialsports.com for your source of Karate,Kobudo,Aikido,And Kung-Fu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aodhan Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I would go see a doctor. It could be any number of things, none of them very good.With a loud "Crack" and continuing pain while doing splits, I might tend to suspect an avulsion fracture. This is where the muscle tightens (Such as if you lost balance or something similar and tensed up), and a piece of bone is actually torn away where the tendon is anchored.None of the possibilites with a loud sound and continuing pain are very attractive, so get thee to a doctor!Aodhan There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.-Douglas Everett, American hockey player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertigo Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I absolutely agree with Aodhan - If you've had continual pain for 2 weeks, that's definitely not a good sign. You're probably not going to be able to do a lot of good just resting it - I'd recommend seeing a doctor, and soon!

Goju_boi Posted December 27, 2005 Author Share Posted December 27, 2005 I don't know if this helps , but I have a weak immune system due to medications. So this makes me heal slower. I'm thinking maybe it has to do with it lasting so long or maybe not. https://www.samuraimartialsports.com for your source of Karate,Kobudo,Aikido,And Kung-Fu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JusticeZero Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 It doesn't matter, continuing pain for the better part of one week is enough to direct you to a doctor, let alone two.

I'm thinking maybe it has to do with it lasting so long or maybe not.The weakened immune system shouldn't have much to do with muscle healing, although I could be wrong. Immune system is more the bodies ability to fight off colds/infections.Any pain that lingers for a week or more and especially any pain that hinders movement needs to be checked by a professional. If you are afraid that he might say stop training for a couple weeks, think about how it will feel a month from now when he say "Well, it could have been a couple weeks, now it's going to be a couple months."See a doc, dude.

Goju_boi Posted December 30, 2005 Author Share Posted December 30, 2005 I feel it considerably less, but it's still there. Anyways , what kind of doc should I see? Just a regular doc or a specific one? https://www.samuraimartialsports.com for your source of Karate,Kobudo,Aikido,And Kung-Fu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, go to your general practictioner and see if you can get a referral to a sports doc.Aodhan There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.-Douglas Everett, American hockey player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleung Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Like everyone else, I think you should see a doctor, a sports doc if there's one local. Maybe physiotherapy might be recommended by the doctor too. Get well before anymore serious training.

Goju_boi Posted January 8, 2006 Author Share Posted January 8, 2006 well I haven't seen the doc b/c my mom doesn't think anything of it. Anyways , I stretched on Friday and stretched fine. the only thing though, is that in a lot of exercises for my right side wouldn't go all the way. I still feel a lil bit of pian, but way less than before. https://www.samuraimartialsports.com for your source of Karate,Kobudo,Aikido,And Kung-Fu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
