Enough Already! Calf Muscle and DVT’s
August 14th, 2009
It is really annoying when you think you are well on the road to recovery after an injury only to find there is another hurdle to get over.
After suffering a calf muscle tear 3 weeks ago, this week I had noticed huge improvements in my mobility and flexibility. My plan was to ditch the crutches next week and start walking on my own.
While at work on Wednesday, I started to feel quite a bit of pain in my leg and by the evening it was pretty nasty. Yesterday I went to my regular physio appointment and after a quick consultation my physio was quite concerned that I may have a DVT.
So rather than getting a physio treatment, I instead went straight to the Doctors and had the first of an anti-clotting injection.
I will be fine but the point here is that some injuries can have a really big impact on your health and during these times you need to be more disciplined than ever and not give in.
