G.O.A.T.
Pulled my calf (upper medial) playing tennis. I Googled grades and recovery time ... but thought I would post here for any guidance.
- pain when I landed ... could walk fine, but some pain when foot flexed
- no visable signs of bruising ... been 10 hours
- no pain unless walking, then just if calf stretches
- very sore when pressing down on spot
Based on brief googling:
Grade 1 7-10 days
Grade 2 5-8 weeks
Grade 3 4-6 months
I'm assuming most likely Grade 1. I figured I would do nothing for a week ... other than very light stretching after a couple of days. Then maybe a calf sleeve ... and hit the ball machine if pain mostly gone.
