As the two teams lined up for their grand entrances into the Superdome last night in New Orleans, some of the players were facing questionable injuries. Let's break them down (not literally):
- Ravens: WR Tandon Doss (ankle)
- Ravens: LB Dannell Ellerbe (toe, back)
- Ravens: FB Vonta Leach (knee, ankle)
- Ravens: LB Terrell Suggs (achilles, bicep)
- 49ers: TE Garrett Celek (foot)
- 49ers: S Dashon Goldson (foot)
- 49ers: RB Frank Gore (ankle, shoulder)
It's unfortunate it doesn't matter which sport you play, you're likely to get injured. However, in order to not keep you off your feet for too long with an injury, stop playing when it hurts. We don't like to hear, "play through the pain," it's more likely the injury will get worse if you just ignore it! Both our
Blacksburg and
North Roanoke offices see athletes of all levels daily. From Virginia Tech players to Hollins, our goal is to get them back on the playing field in the appropriate time frame. If you are having any kind of discomfort in your
lower extremity, please take our advice and seek
professional help. It may be a quick fix or a boot may be necessary- but the sooner the better!!
