I'm a girl and I was doing wrestling after school. I tried to do a move but then i fell into a splits and then my opponent fell on top of me. My legs sort of hurt but not too bad, but at the time it hurt. Will there be any damage to my ligaments or tendons?
Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query. It is hard to say without seeing him or making some tests,at least xrays. you ll see soon will there be pain and swelling annd if it is even after 10 days than you should do ultarsound or MRI to rule out ligament injury.most tendonds and muscles injuries recover spontaneously,just apply ice comresses ,elevate leg,rest and take standard painkillers. Wish you good health. Regards.
