EagleEye Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 How long do you guys usually rest after being Injured? This is given its a non conventional injury and your doctor hasnt given you a timeline to rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 If it was an injury that I was not going to the DR for it would not be true rest days. I would do Yoga and extra stretching until it was worked out then get back into things. It depends on the injury. If I do go to the DR and they give me a timeline I would typically start exercising again before they give me the go ahead. Thinking that they have to error on the side of caution.

Stacey Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 It depends on the injury. Usually I will rest one to three days and then I force myself to move again. I like to use heat and ice. I pulled my back a few years ago and struggled to do just about everything I normally did so I gave it a good 48 hours of relaxing with ice and heat in rotation and eased back into moving more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 I honestly can't say. I have not been injured since I was in my teens in this sense and I just went along with whatever my doctor told me was best. I guess if I hurt a leg, my back, or maybe pulled a shoulder I would use the same approach as Stacey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
