Took ball out of bounds and pushed off with my left foot and had an immediate, searing pain in the calf. Immediately went to the ice bag. So much so I ended up with 2 degree frostbite!! Well after the pain stopped I could still move the ankle but was convinced I had at least a partial tear..Went into an shortleg immobilizing boot(think ski boot)...<br />Kept waking up with terrible back pain for weeks afterward.....Oldfarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14333534023484494721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24021163.post-85412109785517739562011-07-04T07:18:16.428-05:002011-07-04T07:18:16.428-05:00I can't imagine my body being that fragile to ...I can't imagine my body being that fragile to fail in such a catastrophic way. It reminds me that even the strongest most conditioned of athletes are vulnerable and it's incredibly difficult to prevent all injuries. Sorry Beckham you don't deserve such bad luck, I hope you get better and we see you on the field before your inevitable retirement.Tedhttp://www.creditcardspecialist.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24021163.post-57454045256203474202011-01-07T22:28:04.808-06:002011-01-07T22:28:04.808-06:00dear anon.,

A snap, pop, and down I went to the floor. Thompson's test no movement at all; definite gap in the calf area..9 days later, surgery revealed I had ripped the tendon out of the bone at the insertion point intact. I am not an athlete by any means, and I had 8 months of intensive physical therapy before I could walk anywhere close to normal... my sympathies and empathies with Mr. Beckham. This is a gruesome, painful, debilitating injury I would not wish on my worst enemy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
