Last night I took a kick in the side of the knee while my leg was at the worst possible angle for it. After dropping to the mats for a bit, with some help, I got up and hobbled home. I would like to say thanks to everyone there for helping out. I'm borrowing a tensor bandage and an ice pack from the school. I was lucky to be giving Sifu Robertson a ride there because he drove me back home.
Today after lots of ice and ibuprofen it definitely feels weird moving my leg a certain direction. It feels like my knee has way less support than it should to the inside. So I went to the Royal Alex to get it looked at. The doctor confirmed there is more movement than normal to the inside but wasn't positive what it is. She suspected a sprained or torn MCL but made me an appointment with orthopedics to get it looked at again. Meanwhile I'm supposed to stay off it and keep a tensor on. I used my McNeil cane to the hospital and got a nice comment on it. Who knew? Its good for beating people and healing!
So it looks like I'm down for a bit. Obviously I'm a little peeved right now. I just hope it heals fast.
I certainly hope you are okay. On a positive note, it took your mind off your sore toe! Heal quickly, sparring is way too fun to have to watch.
ReplyDeleteOh dear! Did you do this while sparring? I hope the injury is only minor. As a member of the team, I feel like shouting, MAN DOWN! MAN DOWN!
ReplyDeleteYes it was during sparring. It was just an unlucky accident. Thanks, I also hope its minor.
