injury

I have quite an odd story as to how I suffered my most recent "injury", and wondered about some other people's strange, funny, or embarrassing ways you've been injured. Basically, I was holding a thing of ice cream, and had my head turned to the right, walking forwards, didn't see the girl on...

So 2 years ago I did high school cheerleading and tumbling on the hard floor really hurt my foot. It's like the front of my foot that connects my foot to my leg. I didn't think much of it, so I put a brace an ankle brace on and continued cheering throughout the season. I stopped high school...

Okay so my friends sister in laws daughter got a concussion. She was out for 3 months or so. Her coach said she needs to get a full up at least. She just started practicing a couple weeks ago and her stunt group was out of town. Do you think it's fair that the coach isn't giving her the time she...

Hey guys just wondering if anyone has ever pulled their hamstring and recovered well, i pulled mine 2 weeks ago and i have been doing physical therapy, but im afraid that my tumbling isnt going to be as good as it was before, I was just wondering if anyone can relate lol plus im bored in study...

So, when they first came out I was thinking about getting the Nfinity Phoenix and I ending up tearing my ACL (again) before I ever got them. I am looking to get a new pair of cheer shoes and am debating between getting the Evolutions I always get or getting the Phoenix. I am wondering if anyone...

This question goes out to all the cheer alum out there! I have recently graduated into the "alumni" category (who knows, maybe ill make a surprise appearance one day) but i wanted to know from others: do you have any injuries that continue to affect you today? (for instance: a knee injury at 15...

Hey Everyone, This is my first post! I broke both sides of my ankle and my leg (fibula) last December and am still in recovery. I swear I thought I was never going to walk again until I finally took my first steps without crutches (about 3 months after my injury). My doctor says he is not sure...

I need some advice...My 12 year old daughter broke both bones in her forearm in January doing her ROBHS. It's time for her to start tumbling again and she is SO scared! Anyone have any advice that I can share with her to give her a little more confidence??? Thanks!

We've all seen the thread about Tsunami and them overcoming their battle on Sunday with an injured athlete, but I wanna also give a shout of to all the other teams who had injuries too. I was mostly in the MilkHouse so I really only saw injuries in their, so any from the Jostens Center can be...

What is the worst injury you (or someone you know) has gotten from cheerleading and how did you get it? I sprained all the ligaments in my right thumb. I am a back and my flyer was doubling and my thumb jammed into her back and bent it backwards. It was black and blue for days. I didn't go to...

Injuries are a very common thing in our sport but how do you guys/girls deal with season ending injuries. I am not talking about the injury itself, but how do you deal with not being able to compete with your team? I got hurt about 2 months ago (fractured my tibia, and tore 3 ligaments in my...

how many athletes in your gym got injured as of the moment and serious are they?

Last saturday i landed on my neck during a tumble pass with my whole body weight landing down on top of me. Went to a&e and got x-rays and they are all clear. I have some nerve damage and from my C2 downwards is out of place. I want do know if this has happened to anyone before and how long it...

Word on the street is that a few of the flyers for senior elite got hurt and didnt compete at cheersport/got hurt at cheersport. Which ones were they and what happened? Either way, they still performed beautifully! And to anyone who has gotten hurt - i wish you the fastest recovery possible...
