I Busted My Knee
It happened one day at gym. There I was pushing myself in Body Combat when the ache started on my right knee. Thinking it’s because of how hard I’m pushing myself, I ignored it and carried on. My legs always ache after a class anyway, so I figured it will go away soon enough.
Well, it didn’t go away. After 2 weeks, I started to get a little worried. It’s really uncomfortable put any weight on that leg and since the right leg is the supporting leg when getting on and off my car, that’s an added strain there.
The good news is the pain did not get any worse, thank God! At the same time, it’s not getting any better either.
I saw a doctor about it yesterday. Wouldn’t want to risk any more serious injuries there. WBDD is coming up and I don’t want to have to drop out of the opening dance because of this.
Thankfully the doctor said since there is no swelling and inflamation, the problem can be taken care of with meds. I don’t have to go for X-Rays either. But he did advice me to wear a knee brace until the pain subsides and take it easy during gym, so this means no Body Combat or Step classes for me until then sob, sob :’)
Looks like until then, I’m gonna be a regular face in the Pilates and Yoga classes.
