Knee...ouch

[g_u_m_b_y]

did my knee today, didnt think much and sat down on the street before and it fucken hurt, i could barley get up.
It hurts now to bend it....

my knees have always been shitty...
The problem?
Im off to bali on friday. Seeing as it is a minor sort of injury, any tips for a fast recovery process?

with that length of recovery time I suggest prayer, but make sure you use a pillow to kneel on ....

and maybe get your a$$ to the sports clinic at narra for some quick fix advice ....

good luck ....

RICE

R-est
I-ce (not the bad stuff)
C-ompression
E-levation

thats your bread and butter for any acute musculoskeletal injury of the sort...i also suggest maintaining a painfree range of motion and keeping some sort of movement in the joint, as opposed to a complete immobiliaztion

once you see 6ft ruler edge ulu lines stacked to the horizon you wont even remember your knee

have a good trip dude

Gently knead your knee , just enough to locate the damage and give it some warmth and slight pressure still holding the whole area.

I hope your travel insurance is paid up. Did you declare a pre-existing condition?

[mustkillmulloway]

voltarin.... asprin...panafcortelone....get it into ya and take a supply with ya

it's not so much about fixing the knee as masking the pain on holidays

his got 50 other weeks the year fix the knee

oh....and a random blonde backpacker on heat next bali pool will do u wonders

[g_u_m_b_y]

haha.
we have figured out its only a sprain....
or we think at least

doing the rice, so it should be good.
feels more musclar so i sholud be right.
now my stress is hoping the shaper gets the board finished and sent in 2 days

thanks guys

if the knee is still sore in bali,head for karamas,while checking the area ,cover said knee with the black sand for as long as possible,the dry heat zaps the moisture from knee..thats what the local bike stack mob do..paddle out,get a 5 second bazz full figure 8 cutty if your knee is sore still,drop the coin on a indo doctor go the codine but no bintangs

[brenno05]

ask for a jungle juice at the bounty and that is garunteed remove any pain you feel in your knee....and replace that with pain in your head the next day

Steroids, Gumby!
Have you had any scans etc?
As said above ice for the 1st few days and depending on the prob either keep it moving or isolate and restrict movement with bandage.

Go to the Doctor cause you may be able to persude him to give you some voltarin 50's which you will then feel no pain. If not you get get voltarin 25's over the counter at the chemists. Gets me through most over 35's soccer games.
