Back Injury, Out for Awhile…

[colin007]

Someone remind me not to pick up the bedding or sheets at @Vinsk's next garage sale...

@Vinsk, how's the recovery coming?

[Vinsk]

I’m doing much better with the back pain. Ribs are ribs...just need some time for them to heal but much better range of motion. I’m a little watchful over the bowel issue. I’ve developed a slight pain right at the site where the perforation happened. Not bad at all but I’m a bit hypersensitive to it based on what happened lol. Otherwise all is well and I’m hoping to do some chipping next week and see how it goes.

Glad you are feeling better @Vinsk.

So when are you going to show the kids those cool skateboard tricks?😜

Ya know, if this doctoring thing loses your interest, maybe you need to video these things and start a YouTube channel. Big money in it, I hear. 😆

Headed out to the course today. Just some chipping and pitching. Nice and easy 10yd-40yd. Went well with no jolts or spasms. I’m a little sore tonight but all good. Little by little. We’re in the 80’s so beautiful outside ( sorry to the Northern guys.) Going back out Wednesday.👍

I was happy for you until this line!😜

Just kidding. Pitch one for me @Vinsk!

WOW that is brutal. Back injuries are tough but ribs are the worst. The perforation is really scary.

 

Glad you are on the mend.

Lol...yeah...well that’s why I threw in the apology with the unnecessary mention of the weather.🤭

Just an update. I’ve been battling a real mess of ruptured internal hemorrhoids..lol. Gotta love it! It’s better now so back to regular recovery mode. I did some short game today again. I ended by taking 5 balls and hitting my 56* with almost a full swing. Very carefully of course and more of a full pitch swing with only minimal rotation. I was able to do that without any jolts and no tightness tonight so that’s good. Doing gentle stretching and still making progress. Again, thank you all for the kind words and encouragement. 😃

Baby steps!

Lol! That’s unusual! I figured you’d have a real doozy for me after posting that.🤭

I'm thinking your avatar may have something do to with it. Those teeth look sharp!

Well, now you know how we all feel when we read your posts. 

Seriously, though, glad you're continuing on your recovery. Sounds like the light at the end of the tunnel is getting bigger.

I don't know how I missed this thread the first time around, but good god. @Vinsk I hope everything heals up for you. I feel for you though I once spent 5 days in the hospital with Rhabdomyolysis after working out too hard and then playing full court basketball against my daughter's team for 2 hours. Not as young as we used to be!
