Last night as I was leaning my nephew's football game and going down the bleachers, I lost my balance and went down with my right leg (RTKR on 1/27/09) bending in ways it had not for years! I heard a crunch (Lots of pain!) and ended up on my rear end. I was thinking to myself that I had just given myself a manipulation without anesthesia!!!
I was able to get up with a little help and get to the car. It was achy and I went home, took ibuprofen, and iced it. This morning I am noticing most of the pain above the knee. Thankfully it hasn't swelled, so hopefully no major damage and maybe I broke up some of the scar tissue and will be able to get a better ROM now! :pzld:
I have always been very afraid of falling but I survived! It was a bit embarrassing though! Thanks for listening!
