TORN QUAD?? - Exercise & Fitness Message Board

Hi all,

I was at soccer practise lastnight and I did something to my quadricep. It's really tender to flex, to put pressure on, and to stretch. Now is this a torn or pulled muscle..what's the difference? I have a game tonight, and I don't know if I should play. Do you think maybe if I stretch really good, along with some BenGay or A535, and get it stretched out, should I play? Or should I attempt to play? Maybe try and see how it feels? I don't know what to do. I can still walk fine..a tiny limp kinda. HELP!!

AND..do you think a tensor bandage would work? Are you supposed to put those on your thigh??

I would check with your docter or coach before you play being that any digonise you get from these boards wouldnt really be that acurate, because we cant actually see you.

I second that... you don't want to risk further injury based on insufficient advice.
