Thats awesome to hear you had such a spectacular recovery livychivy! I think my problem was I left it so long to get it properly checked out that it has impeded proper recovery. At the time there was no swelling or bruising so we didn't suspect anything serious. Long term symptoms told me...
I am 19 and retired currently but still going to an adult gym class once a week and did this injury in my last competitive training session just before christmas last year. We were doing relays and we were doing fast BWO and my legs went before my arms were ready and I crumpled on my arm. So its...
Well, after seeing a GP, a sports physician, and x ray and an MRI we have finally figured out why my elbow is sore and causing me grief. What has happened is I had a grade 2 tear of my UCL (Ulna collateral ligament) and it isn't healing at the moment. I have also severely strained my pronator...
I am a huge reader and always have been so I have a huge list of books for you! I loved fantasy so some of my suggestions might not be her cup of tea but tried to steer clear of fantasy in recommendations
The Girl in the Cave - Anthony Eaton
A series of unfortunate events - Lemony snicket

Vegemite - though you brits might not like it
Lorna Jane do great half tops and slogan work out singlets (almost my entire gym owns at least one)
It really depends I only had 2 and I had them out separately but while I was awake (local anaesthetic) both times there was trobbing with tumbling or excessive blood pumping around the body and was especially painful in long handstands. You could probably go back and do strength and flexibility...
For me it was I was getting old - 19 with not chance of elite or anything like that. I had a university education to attend to and the two timetables didn't want to work together. That and I had a coach that I don't think could have pushed me much further than where I was.
Sorry I am unfamiliar with pre wrap, I have the hyper allergenic tape which causes the same reaction is that what you're talking about or is this something different?
Discovered after reading the fine print that a referral is needed for the sports doctor anyway (a new thing, you used to be able to go in without a referral) so GP it is to start with regardless, in regards to MRIs the sports physicians MRI referrals are rebatable with medicare, GPs are not, GPs...
Generally:
Tiger paws
Under tape (hypoallergenic stuff)

Ice gel (+ some times heat rub)
Hair ties and scrunchies
Water bottle
Deodorant
Hair brush
The biggest issue I had was deciding what way to twist. I jump full turn right and pirouette right but I round off left. So i was told you must twist left as it was the same direction as your round off turns. Once we figured that out i had it on floor within the week.
