If it isn't feeling better in a day or so and still hurts to walk, you might want to get an xray just to make sure the ball didn't fracture your femur.Barihttp://livelaughrunbreathe.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25824302.post-50620888755270496372015-05-12T16:02:59.000-04:002015-05-12T16:02:59.000-04:00There's a product called Arnicare by a company...There's a product called Arnicare by a company called Boiron -- you can get it over the counter at walmart and I'm sure just about any drugstore. Usually it's by the muscle creams like Ben-Gay or by the first aid stuff. It's a clear gel made from some plant and it works WONDERS on bruises. I discovered it when I had an unfortunately run-in with a piece of firewood and ended up with a huge swollen purple grape-sized lump on my chin. It was right before thanksgiving and I was grumping about looking like a freak in all the holiday pictures that were going to be taken and a friend of mine recommended the arnicare. It worked wonders - I've had bruises like that before that hung around for months but with the arnicare this one was mostly faded in a few days and gone completely in about 2 weeks. I recommend giving it a try on your leg - it will take down the swelling and make it hurt less and fade the bruise faster. Good luck!Liskanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25824302.post-9260361358068693782015-05-15T07:15:56.000-04:002015-05-15T07:15:56.000-04:00I am sorry about your leg.

I think the ice also gives you an immediate relief, so good job you had the chance to put some ice right away.<br><br>Well, today is Friday, so is your leg better for the game? I wish you the best. Have an awesome game!!!Carinahttp://yoursimplehealthylife.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25824302.post-3675564710832874162015-05-18T15:33:44.000-04:002015-05-18T15:33:44.000-04:00Hope you're feeling better!

I started playing in a league this spring, and I've played catcher - the only equipment provided is a mask, and I'm so scared that someone will foul the ball off into me....so far, so good.Susan - Nurse on the Runhttp://www.susanruns.comnoreply@blogger.com
