injury during football practice?
i think i got injured during football practice and i didn't go to the doctors or trainers since i thought it was nothing but my scapula(shoulder blade) and my lower rib section's been hurting every time i stretched or move. please tell me if it's something i should check out or just leave it.
probably a pulled muscle- go to the trainer. possibly a cracked scapula-ask the trainer then go to the doctor.
Hello Jackal, thank you for asking at HealthReplies.com.



  

Injury in sports or self-defense training is quite often experienced because in these activities quite a lot of things are at high risk of causing injury to certain body parts especially if not done in the right way and there is no good security during the activities carried out.



  

Even though there are no visible signs of injury in the area you are complaining about (such as bruising, swelling, or redness), it is still advisable to check the complaint further to the doctor to determine whether there is a serious injury that occurred to you due to the complaint indeed it can be caused by a broken rib / crack or an injury to the chest muscles.



  

After ascertaining what condition you are experiencing, then you can also determine what therapy should be given based on these conditions.



  

Meanwhile, if the complaint is felt to be very disturbing, you can try taking pain relievers such as paracetamol according to the dosage on the package or applying topical pain reliever to the painful area, until there is further advice from the doctor. It is not advisable to massage the painful area until there are other suggestions from the doctor who examined you.



  

I hope this helps. if your chest muscles are sore to touch or the pain can be reproduced with certain positions or movements, it's not serious and will improve with rest/time. but if you get a tight, heavy, or squeezing feeling deep in the chest with exercise such as walking or lifting, it's time to see your doctor as this may indicate a more serious problem. see more... swelling is one of the symptoms of superficial phlebitis. the area is often very tender to touch, warm and red. it is best to have the acute inflammation treated and then explore your options for definitive treatment. see more... Hello Dede, Thank you for the question.



Has your father seen a doctor after this accident? If your father has an accident and falls / hits him, this impact can have an impact on the affected body. The impact also depends on the strength of the impact experienced. This impact can affect bones, muscles, tendons (connective tissue that connects muscles to bones), ligaments (connective tissue that connects two bones), blood vessels, nerves, and skin. Symptoms that can result from this impact are injuries, bruises, pain in the area, swelling, or difficulty moving the limbs. If until now your father's left leg cannot be used for walking, you should suggest that your father immediately see a doctor. The doctor will examine your father and will usually suggest further tests such as x-rays. X-rays can tell if the complaint your father is experiencing is caused by a hip or thigh fracture; because if you experience a fracture, then treatment by an orthopedic specialist needs to be done.



If no fractures are found, the doctor will usually suggest consulting a medical rehabilitation specialist to arrange a physical therapy program that your father can do to regain strength so that it can return to normal function.



Hope this information is useful.



Dr. Aloisia Good evening, thanks for asking at HealthReplies.com. Complaints that you experience can be caused by various things, which among each symptom can be interrelated or not. Among the possibilities are:



 Pinched nerve disorders Infection or inflammation of the nerve lining Low blood pressure Spinal structural abnormalities Kidney stones This condition is most likely harmless, but it must be checked immediately because up to this point, the possibility is still very diverse, whereas the handling of each possibility can be different. So our advice, try to check yourself to a general practitioner, and may go directly to a neurologist, to find out more about his condition through direct examination. The handling that you will receive later depends on the results of this inspection.
