Anyone Else get hurt at all this year?? I partially tore my MCL about 4 weeks ago overshooting the last step up at the summit pullin a 5... Anyways my doc says i'm done but I am not listening to him like a 24 yr old dumb ass

I have just started to hit rails again this last week and feel gayer then shit because my leg is so weak that i fall on shit that I would never normally fall like i.e. landing switch off a rail.

My question is what was your injury and how long did it take for you to get back to a 100% even if it was minor like a bruised tailbone or some shit

5 weeks my ass, kohl, you were skiing in 3. anyway I broke my leg thanksgiving weekend and that took me out till mid january. still not sure if it is fully healed, yet, follow up apointment is set for april 24th I think.  but I have been skiing on it, and honistly it takes like 2 skiing days to get your confidence back up.  then I smashed the cartelage in my nose up on suday, still hurts.

I fractured my right heel from a flat icy landing, the first weekend of february and I am still on crutches. Will know in a week when I should expect to be walking again. My season is more than likely done however.

I fuckin think I reinjured my shit......I hope its just imflamation because it feels allright but just hella swollen. If I would of tore it I would have known right? I.E. Excrusiating Pain?? Anybody with input who has had MCL injuries.

I know if it was a ACL /Miniscus/ pcl it would be a wrap but a MCL is pretty minor compare tothe other shit???

I lost two toe nails. Had some shinbang for a bit but relatively injury free luckily compared to last year. Broke my thumb, had hella bad shinbang most of season, got a slight concussion, toenails, etc.
