    Parents ugh, salter-harris fractures, anyone?

    DD has just been diagnosed with a Salter-Harris fracture in her foot. We'll be seeing an orthopedist hopefully on Monday. The urgent care folks said it does not look like a bad one. Has anyone had a child go through one of these? I guess if nothing else, she'll get a lot better on bars!

    Parents Stress Fracture Questions

    My daughter has been complaining of right lower leg pain (on the inside of the leg) for over a week. She is pretty tough, and I know that she is down playing the pain. I took her to the pediatrician who ordered an x-ray. He showed us a "line" on her tibia that he thought was a stress fracture...

    MAG stress fracture?

    I spoke to DS's coach today after we got home from states. (his coach is a chiropractor plus grew up as a gymnast... so, while not an orthopedist, he certainly knows more about this stuff than I do.) Yesterday the doctor said, "minor sprain". The coach today said that he tested the range of...

    WAG Timelines/tips for post cast removal (elbow fracture)

    Minor fracture of the elbow a few weeks ago - no pins, no displacement, or anything truly terrible. She was given the option of no cast, but I insisted, as I know she wouldn't stay off it.

    So a few weeks ago I retired from gymnastics - for a few reasons, but one of them is I simply can't do a number of skills due to back pain. **Just a disclaimer, I'm not looking for medical advice, just if anyone else has had a similar experience they could share** I'm looking to get into dance...

    Coming Back from a Stress Fracture in my Back, mean gym owner!

    A few months ago I began feeling a huge amount of back pain in my lower back, especially when i was tumbling. I ignored it, telling myself to suck it up and stop being a wimp.

    Parents DD spine fracture update

    I'm not sure what drove this decision (although I think the injury freaked DD out). DD has decided to leave gymnastics. She hasn't said why, just that she was done. We told her we would support her decision no matter what, as we always have. Just not sure what she will do now.
