Anyone have any tips to recovers from sports injuries?

[MissMam]

So the other day is was in my wrestling match and I got thrown twice, got a shoulder to the gut and went flying twice, 2 of my opponent's kept headbutting my head, etc. and now my body is sore as hell and many parts of my body are swollen, what should I do? It is not very pleasant to move at all.

Same happened to me as an ex wrestler, one tournament I was thrown, fell on my hip, hit in the groin twice from a girl where I needed to take a breather, and hurt my knee. I was always sore.


Best remedy is rest and ice. Taking a warm bath felt nice too. At least you can only wrestler girls. I’m tournaments I noticed stronger guys hurt girls often because their strength. I also didn’t like wrestling the girls because sometimes they’d get desperate and play dirty to compensate for size and strekght difference

I’m a girl wrestler also by the way, I asked my guy friend who also wrestles to type this out for you haha. He’s a really good wrestler so I wanted him to type it

I've wrestled women as well. I find most women are timid and give up rather easily but some can get quite competitive. Are you a girl and did you seriously get hit in the groin and lose to another girl? I've never had a woman play that dirty with me lol. Granted we were just fooling around, it wasn't a real contest.

Rest R. I. C. E.
Ice
Compression
Evelation

you learn that in first aid

Unless it's serious enough to go to a doctor. take it easy and let it heal. And don't be head butting, that can do serious damage to either person.

Use ice for swelling. Hot bath for sore muscles. Do not "burn" yourself with ice. So don't leave it on too long. Do it several times a day for short periods, like 5-10 minutes. Don't put ice directly on the skin either - use a towel or something in between.

But mostly you just have to wait for it to heal.

[MissMam]

thank you very much, that is very useful

That’s very interesting you’re on the wrestling team at school? Do you wrestle other guys or just women? The best thing that I can tell you is recuperate and rest. Myself at school varsity

[MissMam]

yes, I'm on the school team, in tournaments I'm only aloud to wrestle girls but I practice with both genders.

[MissMam]

thank you

[Iron_Man]

That is awesome. This is really good to hear this.

[Iron_Man]

You shouldn’t be head butted that’s against the rules

[Iron_Man]

Oops, sorry I don’t know how the words got left out on my other post. I guess it was voice command error. But what I was saying, was I’m a wrestler myself from the past at my school on the varsity wrestling team I medaled at many different tournaments.

[MissMam]

basically ower heads kept bumping bc on how rough the matches where, and now I've got a few bump its not like they where intentional, it just happens

[MissMam]

it could gather you where a wrestler at some point by the way you where talking

[Iron_Man]

Ice it down and just rest up a little bit. How often do you wrestle per week? I used to wrestle twice a week. One time in a tournament I wrestled four times back to back in a couple hours. I was totally exhausted and one other guy got a bye that wasn’t fair at all to me

[MissMam]

I practice 3 times a week after school and I go into as many tournaments as i can

[Iron_Man]

Nice Good luck

[MissMam]

thanks

[Iron_Man]

You’re very welcome

Do you wear knee pads, groin protection and ear protection? All those things really prevented a lot of pain for me especially the groin protection as a guy but since your a girl maybe just stick to knee pads and head gear?


Sometimes it isn’t allowed but those really helped me and my teammates. Throws are hard to deal with especially if your smaller. Lots of girls didn’t really like practicing with our guys because they could get thrown due to size difference and it hurt them. Same with our guys as the person said below I don’t really like to wrestle girls as they play dirty.

Just use RICE and stretch, maybe take it easy in practice until you heal and avoid practicing with some of the bigger guys or girls that could hurt you.

Try massaging the muscles and if that doesn't work then get a hot bag of water or something and put it on your muscles, it might reduce the pain
