muscle strains to my back usually recover quickly. Hottubbing and those thermacare wraps seem to speed the process.

You should look into some Vastus medialis strengthening for your knee and stay off treadmills.

hmm

looks like il b having hot baths for the next 3 days


as for my knee, no man i rly think its healed.. i kno form past injuries i literlly ddint do ne thing on it for about 3-4 weeks....

If this "injury" to your back is the same as what I'm suffering right now you should be good to go in three or four days. I strained a muscle in my mid back doing squats the other day it it's really a matter of getting the muscle to relax enough to stop the spasms.n Some Ibuprophin, heat and rest should take care of the problem. I would STRONGLY encourage you to get back into the weights sloooooooowly when you do go back. That will help ensure you don't re-injure your back.

thermacare :THUMBS:

I've found taking 2 naproxen sodium tablets (Aleve) helps a ton.

Also, warm up before you tackle the weights.

Good preparation is the key to staying injury free for me, a good warm up and stretch before the workout and warm down and stretch after the workout.
