Last week at fitness training I pulled my calf muscle quite badly and I rested it until last night - but as soon as I tried to move on it at training it became very painful.
The problem I had was that to get a physio appointment through the NHS would take ages and to go private can be quite costly, when basically all I wanted was a bit of advice, ie how long will it take to heal, what should I do or not do with it, how bad was the strain etc.
I put "calf muscle strain" INTO google and it brought up a website called physioroom.com which is provided by chartered physiotherapists and it told me everything I needed to know.
Unfortunatley I now know that I won’t be playing for 4-6 weeks but at least I know how long I need to rest it now. Unfortunatley that means I will not be playing in the tournament or any of the Linden Cup games.
Basically I was so impressed with the site that I thought it would be a good website for everyone else at the Club to know about (with a view that our Features editor could review it, maybe?)
