new forum idea

[robparker]

i have an idea for a new forum, that hopefully wudnt get used very much, but an injuy forum where if some1 gets hurt they can ask others for advice, or if they have done the same thing what treatement they got for it etc. or general advice like its better to ice ths type of injury and apply heat to this kind etc..... dunno... maybe!

[sam]

sounds like a good idea- id be needing it :mrgreen:

[Paul]

very good idea, im always gettig hurt skating, KY my hip still isn't fully healed after about 2 months, tell me that isn;t fucked up.

[sam]

is that from when you tried to flatspin a hip and fell 7 feet to concrete?

[Paul]

no i didn't really get any injuryies from that, execpt sending my body into shock the next day and fealing like shit, i cracked my hip trying a 540 in a mini. i only got 450 and fell sideways onto my hip, cracking the top part it, thet very top just befor your ribcage starts.

[sam]

thats gotta hurt. I think i broke a bone in pat of my hand today :mrgreen:

[Paul]

fun. last week i cracked the lower part of my knee cap, it's weird the swelling is gone and the top part of my knee cap is hard like it should but about halfway down i push on it and it gives a little and the bottom of my knee cap is kinda mushy. havn't been to a doctor yet becuase it's not hurtign at all, at least as long as i dont fall on it.

[sam]

i think maybe you should before you go skating again...

Hah, I started a thread like this on Cameron Card's forum called 3-Injury Minimum...

Most recently - I'm sportin' a 3-month old possible-shin crack but after a short hiatus it's been fine out rollin'. Shins ouchies always blow. I split my left knee to the bone doin' a bs royale when i hit a cap on a small-ass drop last spring, which i know is pussy, but i lucked out and severed the nerves so it didn't hurt - just looked like my kneecap hanging off my leg by some skin, heh.

Now that I'm close to some 12'ers though and am starting to pump up to the coping, I will probably be posting again with some totally exotic concussion or something :twisted: Stay tuned!

talking about injuries man i ahve broke nones in and around both my rists so much that everytime the weather gets cold i cant move them my fingers will swell up and i can hardly bend them and they fall asleep for many minutes until i warm them back up.

really sucks when you wnat to bail for a landing then you have to try and throw your body around to land on your back.

but dam this weather has been getting on my nerves.

oh note to self i think you should go get that checked out ive been skating for 3 years and i cracked my knee cap in half.

I had to go get my leg check because everytime i would jump and land on my knee it would shift out of place then i would have to endure the pain of hitting it back into place.

Dont play around when it comes to your knees go get it checked out.

it took me many months for it to heal to a somewhat ok condition for me to actually start skating really hard on it again.

im not saying that your case is alot different than mine. But mine felt the same way it felt like i had just chipped the bone then when i landed on it a week later my knee shifted.

then i went to the doctor and they put me in a brace to see if the bone would heal back together. luckly it did.

im lucky-4 years (kinda) skating, and not a single broken bone or had a sprain! yet. but before i progress in vert im getting me some top notch pads
