sprained

My DD (13 yo level 9) sprained the toe next to her pinky toe when it tucked under on a vault landing three days ago. X-ray confirmed no break and she can walk on it, do trampoline, no problem. It is a little swollen and hurts to tumble/land. Not a big deal injury, but we have a travel meet in...

unfortunately I sprained my ankle 3 days ago, it is only mild to moderate luckily though. however I have been told I may not be able to do impact for 3 weeks, which Is when my next competition is. I have been working really hard on lots of upgrades, and really want to show some of them off. Has...

A lightbulb just went off....I posted on the forum yesterday about my daughter, age 7 (almost 8) not straightening her legs. I have no idea if this could be the cause but it just hit me that a few weeks ago, beginning of September she sprained her ankle. She complained about it hurting when she...

Can anyone give me some good exercises and skills to do with a grade 2, nearly grade 3 (less than an 1/8 of an inch more to make it a full tear) sprained ankle? It's the middle of meet season so I don't want to stop practicing. I was provided a lace up ankle brace by my orthopedic to wear for 6...

One of my gymnasts is coming in today after spraining her ankle. She can't stay away from the gym. Does anyone have a conditioning routine I can hand her to do while she is off her ankle?

Last week at practice I did a leap and landed on my ankle wrong and rolled it. It didn't hurt when I first did it and I kept on doing practice just fine. Two days after that practice my ankle started to hurt whenever I walked off and on. It's been a week and it's still hurting at different times...

Well, got my first gymnastics injury yesterday! I was on the high bar with a pit on one side and mats on the other, I was facing the pit. I simply did a kip cast and swung forward and on the back swing my grips just slipped off the bar. There was no way I could hold on! So as I was falling I...

I mostly want to rant and get sympathy. I did a double back off the double mini that actually turned out to be a 1.5 :( I never thought I would do that again. I just got spooked lost focus and stopped rotating. I knew I hurt my neck but my chest hurt even worse turned out I sprained both. The...

DD sprained her ankle doing a back tuck on beam. Since she fractured that same foot last year I had it xrayed. No fracture but its swollen and sore. Ice, ice and more ice. I want one month of practice without illness or injury. :mad:

Thursday night DD rolled her ankle when she jumped off of the beam. She was still walking on it, it only swelled a little. DS had recently fractured his ankle, so we have a brace (what they had him wear after he got the OK to stop wearing the boot). I had her wear the brace to school on...

I got a call from the Dr today. She had the pediatric radiologist take a look at DDs Xrays. Apparently, DD chipped her ankle and she needs to be in a walking cast for the next 2 weeks! *sigh* This seriously hinders her birthday party this weekend......at Bounce U. :(

Last night DD hyperextended her elbow pretty bad. took her to the doctor today. No fracture, just a bad sprain. Looks like she is out of commission for a couple weeks. Any suggestion for an elbow suppirt for vault & floor when she first goes back? I have seen some for hyperextension, but also...

In practice today I was doing my beam routine, and I missed my cartwheel. It normally wouldn't have been a problem but my foot landed half off the 8-incher and I rolled it. :mad: I sprained my other ankle in September (for the same reason; foot landed half off a 4-inch mat coming down from the...

Not a serious injury at all, just a sprained hand from training my yurchenko tuck full (switching the layout). It doesn't seem like a big deal, but I was told to keep it wrapped. Today is our first day of classes, and of course I can't sign. Oops. It's like a gymnastics injury that caused me to...

I recently sprained my pinky toe. I know I shouldn't do things that put weight directly on the toe, but I was wondering what suggestions others have as to what I should avoid and what things I can do while my toe is healing. I'm at a very basic beginner level, so there are no flips or even...

Last night I hurt my ankle while doing a backtuck dismount off beam. My foot got stuck inbetween two mats and rolled. My coach thought it was broken when he saw it but after the pain wore off after icing it I could move it back and forth and didn't hurt to point it but it did when i pulled it...

Well, today at practice, i was doing series on beam (hand hand) and my hands like crossed on the beam and my wrist got bent kinda backwards and a little sideways. Well ithurt like really bad and so i iced it for like an hour and luckily one of my teammates mom is a nurse and she looked at it...

My daughter sprained her foot last wednesday at practice. the dr. said no practice for a week, but her coach said she would be fine to practice on monday,even if she was a little sore. Her foot is still swollen. Should I follow her coach's advice,who i know would never do anything to hurt her)...
