    WAG Back Pain?

    I'm not sure if this has to do with gymnastics or what.. I'm 14 , L7/8 gymnast and have been experiencing lower back pain. My doctors have just been putting in off as "growing pains" and i'm starting to wonder if it's more than that. The doctor said it was very normal for a 14 year old girl to...

    WAG Heel pain, "lumps" in bottom of heel

    My DD is having heal pain. She has dealt with severs and says this feels different. She says it feels like there is "something" in her heel, on the bottom of it. It makes anything on her feet (running, tumbling, dance, etc) hurt all of her heel. When I rub her heel, deep in the tissue I can feel...

    Parents Mean mom because of knee pain

    My 8 year old daughter has been complaining on and off for about a month about knee pain. We think she injured it working on her front tuck. Three weeks ago I took her to the doctor and they said the knee was inflamed. Told us to ice it, give ibuprofen, and rest it. We did that but continued...
