Down for the count

Yep, the pictures below pretty much sum up feelings on it all. I strained my hamstring at the ischiral tuberosity area back on June 7 while attempting to do sprints. It sucked big time, since it hurt like the dickens to sit for about 5 weeks straight. At the 7th week, I was finally able to get into PT but on the 3rd visit, I progressed into more adductor exercises and wound up aggravating my lower hamstring at my knee. So much so, in fact, that it swelled for 9 days and counting. Today is the 10th day and the swelling has gone down immensely -- thanks to R.I.C.E.. But if I'm on it too long, I get the stabbing pain behind the knee. It's my queue to tell me to slow the eff down. Doc's orders of 2 weeks of nothing.  *sigh*  Upside:  I'm getting some good coaching hours at the box.
