pain

DD has been complaining about knee pain for the past week. She didn't really injure it. She was running to do vault, and just started limping.... during the run. She went to gym 1x since then, but it started hurting again, so she started icing. I've kept out of soccer since her 'injury' as well...

My dd is a new level 4 gymnast. She is really starting to have back pain doing bridges, back bends, back handsprings, etc... She also complains of ankle pain when tumbling and wrist pain when doing back handsprings. Does anyone have any recommendations for doctors in Boston? Do I take her to a...

Whenever do a round off I feel a pain in my hamstring on my leading leg. The pain often persists after my workout and I sometimes develop bruises around my hamstring later. Has anyone else experienced similar problems? Or is it possible that there is something wrong with how I'm doing the...

What do you think it could be? Its been hurting recently. Its been a come and go thing. I will go to the doctor soon but I was just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what it could possibly be. Its all in my lower back like I can't bend over without pain. Its about a 5-9 on a scale of 1-10...

I've been having some bad wrist/hand pain the last few weeks. I don't wear tiger paws or anything to support my wrists. Ill be doing back walkovers or back handsprings or front handspring vaults and it just hurts badly!! I know y'all are going to say I need to ask a doctor, but I need to know...

I'm not looking for medical advise as Ive already been to the proper doctors and undergone various tests and went through PT for my sacroiliac joint. During PT, they had mentioned an SI belt that I might consider. At the time, I was feeling better so did not pursue this, but recently the pain is...

Have an 8 year old who has been complaining her wrists hurt for a couple months now. We've been taping and doing some strength but with no effect. Is she too young for tiger paws? For those with experience with this,what has helped?

I am working on my bhs on beam and have done it on low beam with no mats a few times. The problem is that every time I work on them, or any sort of tumbling requiring hands, my wrists really start hurting. I feel like its stopping me from not practicing as hard as i could be and I dread going to...

Tonight was a good night in tumbling. Probably because I was the best gymnast there for once! And it felt good that I got to lead the warm ups! Well anyways I was bored with front hand springs that I land every time so I decided to do something new! I was feeling confident so I started aerials...

Anyone else have a kiddo who says their back is hurting? My 6 y/o L3 DD has been complaining for about a week now. Today I found her running a hot bath for herself a few hours after she had already taken a bath. I asked her what she was doing and she said her back hurt and she wanted to relax...

Hello everyone, My dd started gymnastics really late, at the age of 15, and has been doing it for 9 months. She does not compete and does recreational gymnastics (Level 3) for about 2-3 hours a week. Recently her foot's been hurting when she puts pressure on the ball of her foot. She also...

Is it normal to have pain all over after gymnastics and tumbling? I'm just always in pain as long as I'm in the sport. I need skills that hurt my back to make team and pain will not get in the way of my goals. It feels like I tore stuff.

I thought I would drop in and give an update on my retired gymmie. She had injured both growth plates in her wrist and done some damage to the ligament in between the two bones. After trying everything else they did a cortizone steroid injection and casted it for a month. She got the cast off...

High I've been experiencing really bad knee pain from jumping (and landing) on double mini, especially when I do front somi or barani mounts. The pain in my knee gets so bad that after training I can't walk and the next day I find it hard to climb stairs. I ice my knee and the pain goes away...

My daughter was doing back walkovers and didn't kick hard enough on one, had all her weight over her shoulders but not enough momentum, and everything came down on her back hard and she hyper-extended her back. I have taken her to the pedi-chiropractor and there is no injury beyond lumbar...

Dd is almost 12 training l8 and after finishing a good l7 year. 2 years ago was diagnosed with Spondylolysis took 8 weeks off and went on to compete again for 2 more years. About 2 months ago she came to me when she first felt some low back pain, She said it was different but erroring on...

DD has been restricted all arm bearing activity for the last 5 months with a stress fracture. She got the go ahead from the Dr. 2 weeks ago. She is supposed to be easy back into things and she has been. She of course has lost lots of upper body strength. She still occasionally has some pain...

My 10 year old daughter has been competing for 5 years now. She just finished her XCEL Silver season and is training for L5. In 2 years my daughter has grown 10 inches and has also gained weight (due to the growth spurt - she isn't considered "overweight" at all). She has been complaining lately...

DD gets her cast off next week! YAY!! How much pain is she going to be in when she gets it off? When she was 2yo, she had a full leg cast, and cried for a few days after it came off. However, that was a full break, and her leg was completely immobilized. Now, her walking cast only goes to her...

Ok DD has a new pain and I can't imagine what the problem might be. She says her tailbone hurts. It hurts when she does back bends, stands in one position too long or walks. Running feels fine but punching the floor or board hurts, splits feels fine but pike stretch hurts. Usually we ice the...
