Injuries

I didnt see the collision SS. i was busy marshalling the forces at the back and next thing you were on your arse upfront. he is a solid unit alright

now that you mention insulating tape - in the absence of a 1st aid kit tonite, shannonsiders elbow was stapped up with a combo of bog roll and insulating tape enabling him to continue in the action

finglas - indoor soccer. 10 gaa lads mucking about

Did the bicycle shorts survive SS** or are they discoloured by blood?

:rolleyes: Take that nonsense to the urban myths thread mate.

Completely fucked my back up on Saturday. Donā€™t know how I did it but wasnā€™t able to get out of the bed until yesterday. Can barely walk at this stage.

Do you fear itā€™s skeletal, Fran?

:lol: :clap:

A Physio friend reckons itā€™s a disc issue. Itā€™s an ongoing problem that I have but it getā€™s worse every time it goes. Iā€™ve spent most of the last few days sprawled out on the floor trying to stay as still as possible. I really need to get it sorted or iā€™ll be rightly fucked by the time Iā€™m 40

I remember you whinging about your back a couple of years back as well.

Bog roll? Ah jaysus that would be fucking awful to dig out afterwards if the wound was of any decent size.

Says the cunt who was out of action for months with a bruised thumb, amongst other complaints on here.

a) Do not go next to near a physio for back problems.
2. Go get an MRI and find out exactly whatā€™s wrong. If itā€™s a prolapsed disc, which it probably is, then I can recommend an excellent Osteopath if you live in Dublin who can help you manage it and live a (relatively) active lifestyle. The only other option is surgery which is extremely expensive, risky and gives no guarantees. The one thing I can guarantee is that it will get progressively worse left unchecked which will cause huge problems down the line which would be no good for a new father(congratulations by the way hope all is well).

Correct!

I wouldnt go to a physio for next to anything these days. The fuckers work on the symptom, not the cause, and you spend a fortune on them. Fucking gangsters.

Have you tried this stretch Horsebox? :lol: :lol: For a fucking disc injury! Come back in 3 days with another ā‚¬50 for me. Bastards.

It must be great to be on internet first names with your physio.

But yes, they are shysters!

@Fran, I know a great man in Limerick that deals and specialises in all kinds of pain. He primarily tries to get to the cause of the issue too.
If your up, Iā€™ll arrange a lunch with SLR and he can sign your copy of Unlimited Heartbreak.

Thanks for the advise CM & Horsebox. I would gladly take a PM with the details of both the Osteopath and the witch doctor in Limerick

He is far from a witch doctor palā€¦ Here is his website- even has a symptom checker - http://www.donkellypainrelief.ie/

The scene was something like the below except you have to imagine SS* as a taller, more ginger version of the waterford lad and wearing bicycle shorts.

Huh?

I was back playing hurling and football three weeks after breaking my thumb
