Physio Check Up

I went in for my final check up at The National Rehabilitation Center in Dun Laoire. It went well, I am still improving slightly. It turns out that the injury I have been having in my foot is called Plantar Fasciitis, it's aggravated tissues under my foot by the heel, a problem which is due to bad walking gait(limp), a remnant from  my spinal injury. I exacerbated the injury by climbing a stemming corner whilst it was inflamed and causing a muscle tear. I may need to get some sort of 'magic' Forrest Gump style leg contraptions fitted to me to sort the problem out, so I am not looking forward to that. Luckily for me the physio knew a thing or two about fingers and after examining my finger she concluded that I had been very lucky and that I may have gotten away with a grade 1 strain ... Wo Hoooooooooooo !! This means I shall not be out of action for too long. I will still take a nice big rest and when I come back I will stop crimping in training and start work on the open handed approach. Injuries suck !! Speaking of injuries ... here is an old injury photo of mine to give you a giggle or make you puke depending upon how squeamish you are ... friction burn Ouchy !!
