    WAG Pain on bars(not hands)

    I have a level 3 AAU gymnast that complains of pain in her abdominal area when doing her back hip circle/pullover. She had an appendectomy in November. Is the pain from this? She's only 8 so isn't very good at explaining these things yet! I have an older gymnast who mentioned pain every once in...

    MAG Heel pain

    Sorry I've been gone for so long...I've been having some heel pain lately from tumbling on the floor for a while. I can't really describe where the pain is. It's on my left foot and it reaches from my heel to the side of my big toe. The pain isn't underneath my foot but on the side. My coach...

    Shoulder blade pain?

    This is sort of completely unrelated to gymnastics, but this DID happen because of tumbling, and I know that there must be some people on this board who have experienced this. Since yesterday, I've been having some terrible pain in my left shoulder blade(it started during tumbling class) and...

    Parents Back Pain at the Lower Levels

    My daughter goes to tumbling for acrobatic gymnastics twice per week, one hour each practice. She has been complaining of back pain recently and I wasn't sure what to make of it. They spend a lot of time on walkovers and handsprings, so I assume this is what is causing the pain. Is this...

    Ankle pain from pronation

    My daughters feet pronate, is there a way to deal with the associated ankle pain by taping or using an ankle wrap while in practice? If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it.

    Groin Pain

    I'm training level 6 and I was doing kip-pushaway-kip and we had to do atleast three in a row and I did them but I had some terrible pain in my groin area. I did some stretches but it kinda made it worse. That was on Monday, the pain's just about gone now though :) PS: It feels great to be off...

    Any reason not to tell coaches about groin pain?

    DD mentioned that she get some pain in her left groin when doing a round off or right leg split (described as "not a little, but not a lot"). My guess is that it's an adjustment related to having switched legs for round off, cartwheel, etc and her body is using muscles a little differently (and...

    Lower Back Pain?

    Couldn't find a more suitable forum for this. One of my DDs and a couple other girls at her gym have lower back issues. For my DD, she had it for her first competition year then she didnt have it for half her second year then it came back! It hurts when she does bridges, front limbers/walkovers...

    Parents I'm sad for my DD. Back pain is back

    Just picked up Trixie from practice and she tells me the back pain is back. It flared up at the end of practice when she was on bars... She was kipping to a cast and then a giant and then felt it. She stopped right away and when I came home, sure enough I pressed that spot and she winced...

    Last week I had a really bad fall doing a cast handstand. I forgot to mention that I really hurt my ankle. Right after it happened my friend gave me her ankle brace and I've been wearing it since Thursday when it happened. It has not helped that much and my ankle is really swollen and my leg is...

    Pain as a reason to leave gymnastics?

    Do a lot of gymnastics leave the sport due to pain that has not resolved through PT, Rest and has no underlying "cause"?

    Tendonitis-Growth Plate-Ankle Pain

    My DD 8, L5, has had ankle pain for quite a while. she complained on and off for a good 6 months before we brought her to the orthopedist in January. He took an x ray of one ankle and said everything was fine. He said "she's growing" and that she's flexible and probably overusing them (Duh)...
