Re: Contemplation in injury
Traditional western medical doctors mostly seem to take a very negative reaction to anything. Find yourself a good sports physiotherapist. Their outlook on medical problems is to get you back doing the things you love, not to prevent you from doing them. We have several students in our school with back problems of various amounts - one of them is currently recovering from a spine fusing operation. With the right teacher, good medical advice from those that want to work with you rather than against you, you can get back on the mat. Don't expect to be doing huge breakfalls immediately (or maybe never again), but a good teacher will adapt the martial arts to your capabilities so that you can still work out and be effective.
