What I wouldn't give right now for my leg to not be an aching disaster area.
Severely strained a hamstring. Can barely walk, can barely stand, sitting is close to torture most of the time. The only comfortable position I have is when I lay on stomach on my bed with an ice pack draped over my muscles. It is really hard to work on essays while sitting like this FYI.
At least this position feels better in the sense that my leg doesn't throb so badly that I can't think. Small things I ask for in life.
Hoping this 2 days of no stretching exercises will help it to heal a bit. If I see no improvement at PT on Friday, I think I'm going to have to consider going back to the doctor. I am only slightly terrified that I might need surgery to repair this (way to go worst case scenario me). The problem is that if this laying position is the only one I'm comfortable in, how can I keep this going at work. I spend 90% of my day on my feet. There is no better way to deal with a strain than to walk on it...oh wait that's right.
Argh. Why can't this just get better.
