Was Doing The Splits In Gym. When I Held It Up Felt A Crack In The Thigh, Butt. Now Hurting. Time To Heal?

i was doing the splits during gymnastics today, im almost at the ground but when i held it i felt a crack in my thigh below my butt and now it hurts only to do splits or any kind of stretch similar to the splits, did i do something wrong? how long will it take to heal, and am i allowed to do wrist movements and stuff on gymnastic rings if i cant do splits?

Hi,
It seems that due to some cut below butt might have given this trouble due to stretching of wound margins.
do not go for split for few days till you get healing of crack.
Apply antibiotic cream locally after doing proper cleaninig of crack.
You can go for other gym exercises except split movements.
Ok and take care.
