| HansE | 1 days | Har hatt lignende reaksjoner i kroppen ved uvante fysiske øvelser / arbeide. Sjøl om smertene var mest framtredende fra kneet til ankelen mener jeg at årsaken ligger i hofte-/setepartiet. | details |
| nightfox | 1 days | Rest. Should start with "slower" track-training maybe to avoid so much newbie-pain. | details |
| John O | 1 days | Caused by temporary lack of oxygen. Could be prevented by making sure I breathe well whilst swimming. Ibuprofen gel helped to relieve pain on the day of injury. | details |

| Shminty | 4 days | Maybe ran too much in a short space of time, as I don't remember straining it and i just woke up one morning with it. | details |
| Mal | 4 days | details | |
| xcsnowskier14 | 4 days | It was probably just a strain of the Tibialis anterior muscle. I think that it was caused from too much ski walking too soon. I had not done any this year so far and to put it all on at once, I think that it just strained the muscle. I think that I will need to do ski walking at least a little bit each week to keep the muscle strong. | details |

| cmorse | 4 days | seems to be gone, R heel kind of tight before/after 5k, perhaps just a bit more stretching in order. Though I have been running an hour or so before recent races, so its not like I'm running cold... | details |

| Tom O | 16 days | In retrospect, the effects would have been a lot less severe if I had gone to the doctor a few days after the bite when it was apparent that it was infected. I guess I thought I could fight it off. The doctor confessed to me today during my follow-up visit that he was "very concerned" when he saw my leg. Now I know not to take spider bites lightly. | details |
| torbensfunk | 16 days | i reckon i do not have to have it marked as injury anymore. feels much better | details |
| supersaint | 16 days | Concentrate on dropping arch in on R. side, standing on left side of wobble cushion and actively dropping ankle in on it. Standing on R. leg on step and dropping R. arch in. Lots of calf stretching. | details |
| theshadow | 17 days | 4 days completely off- patience was rewarded | details |
| keever | 17 days | Rested and massaged. | details |
| Keith | 17 days | Ice! Iceing it was very effective. | details |
| pi | 18 days | Long rest. | details |
| jsjöberg | 18 days | Vilade ut den. Glad att jag stannade innan den utvecklades ordentligt, känns som att jag minimerade skadetiden på så sätt, blev väl drygt 2v men det är nog rätt snabbt | details |
| Robbs | 19 days | Nothing the a big or rest couldn't fix. It's not fixed, but close to it. A few slow/genial runs to get the feeling back then I'll be off. | details |
| JL | 19 days | Har ingen jävla aning om hur det blev bra. Det bara försvann. Vet inte vad det var heller. Kommer väl tillbaka rätt vad det är. | details |
| andrewd | 20 days | getting much better now after physio | details |
| dirtmonkey | 21 days | stretched before/after every run. I just realized on the 9.7 miler that I didn't feel for the first time the whole run in foreeeeever! | details |

| Pete B | 22 days | Better now, not so bad | details |
| cschneiderclimb | 22 days | 10/10/11: not really completely convinced I'm healed, but I do know that efforts of an hour +/- are no longer a problem. This injury was a function of bad pedal and duration, not intensity. I will consider this injury healed with the anticipation that I need to slowly increase duration over the next couple of weeks to see how the leg responds. | details |
| Poo Boy | 23 days | ITB rolling and fingers into the front of my shin. | details |
| jima | 24 days | Better warmups, especially when I'll be running on uneven terrain where an ankle could twist. | details |
| yeagerjustin | 25 days | details | |
| jcarr | 26 days | details | |
| Shminty | 26 days | not sure when it ended. Think at the time I thought about putting it had stopped in here but decided not to tempt fate. | details |
| andrewd | 26 days | so this problem seems to have gone but another has manifested (calf strain) not entirely sure if connected or not (probably is) but going to rest this new one now! | details |
| Coneff | 27 days | Cause unknown. Recovery: stretching, elevating, taking it easy, and strength training (including high jumps) when recovered. | details |
| Big Dave | 29 days | Caused by running in crap new pair of shoes. HArd to rest and stay off feet. Just walking was slowing down the recovery. Acouple of physio sessions and a visit to the podiatrist sorted out the problem. Geoquest 48hr race didn't aid recovery and extended the injury by about 4 weeks. Still feel tightness occasionally the day after long run but as good as recovered. | details |
| andrewd | 29 days | gave it a really good (2 week) rest and then 2weeks of going easy on it, strength now built back up and going well. have seen a podiatrist and am getting orthotics so going to take it very easy on hard surfaces until i'm used to that and have a better running gait | details |
| Michel | 29 days | Waarschijnlijk een klein tikje wat vervolgens een effect heeft vanuit mijn rug. Rekken, fysio losgemaakt en uiteindelijk mijn eigen fysio mij rug gekraakt. | details |
| torbensfunk | 31 days | details | |
| dersu | 32 days | As with Achilles injurines, long warmups helped; unlike Achilles, running on flat and fast running was better than terrain running. | details |

| Guilford Hartley | 37 days | still tight...gotta figure it out. I think it is an issue of tight calves. need to stretch and stuff. | details |
| beeker | 38 days | Ended up doing far too much resting. | details |
| Aiden Sullivan | 38 days | Found out it was an ITB injury. Went to physio and got a roller and some stretches to do. At first it was a bit painful but after it was worth it. | details |
| sgb | 43 days | details | |
| Lillen | 46 days | details | |
| calum | 47 days | details | |
| nknapp | 48 days | The injury was caused by going on a really long trail run in shoes where my heel was too loose. I fixed the problem with the shoes my adjusting my shoelaces to be snugger around the ankle. I recovered from the injury by doing lots of swimming, rollerskiing, and biking. | details |
| jeffw | 49 days | Stopped running for a month. Walked instead which didn't cause calf pain. | details |
| keever | 50 days | I pretty much rested for 3 weeks apart from a few orienteering races. | details |

| Penguino | 80 days | Going to say I have recovered given I was able to jog at the weekend with heavy strapping. pain free though so delighted with that. 3-9-12: Still got swelling and the nobble under the tendon is still there. Very swollen at times. It seems walking pains it more than jogging so need to be really careful with it. | details |

| Hanabanana | 93 days | lol going to the physio and getting orthodics to turn my feet back out the right way....and the chiro for readjsuting where te bones in my feet should be......definitely a good choice in fixin the problem......pretty much defenitely caused by an injury in my ankle a few years ago during P.E that never got treated....he scar tissue built up...made my foot turn in drastically.....and screwed up the rest of my leg.....*shrugs* all good now though i still cant sit cross legged because of that ankle | details |

| triple-double | 118 days | Continued to run on it. It was aggravated by several days of sustained-intensity runs in a row. Over half a year later it got better. | details |
| coryhsmith | 122 days | details | |
| austrianmike | 126 days | The compartment sydrome was probably cause by an inflamed muscles due to the sharp increase in exercise for the marathon training. Resolution occurs a) through rest to reduce the inflammation, and b) through stretching to help reduce tension in the muscle. Feeling a lot better since the therapy (also able to run impromptu, which I previously wasn't able to). Cross-training is useful as it does not put too much training on my running muscles. | details |

| Free Willy | 141 days | still residual pain occassionally | details |

| wynncd | 153 days | details | |
| joshblatch | 185 days | turned out to be compartment syndrome. surgery on the 6th Jan, given the all clear on the 24th feb. slowly built up to jogging increasing amounts and recovery went really well. ellys mum reckoned coz of my short calf length (due to inflexibility) it was making my anterior and lateral compartments work harder. | details |

| kaupoi | 464 days | Luulen että reiden ulkosyrjän lihasjumien omatoiminen päivittäinen hieronta hellitti jännitystä ja polvikivut johtuivat tästä lihaskireydestä. Jännitys johtui varmaankin fiksipyöräilystä/joogasta tai molemmista. Täytyy jatkaa omatoimihierontaa ja ottaa ulkopuolinen manipulaatio säännölliseksi osaksi treeniä VÄÄRÄ DIAGNOOSI. Se johtuu istumisesta, liian pitkästä istumisesta. Nyt (lokakuu 2012) taas oireeton, oli tosin loppukesän taas takareisi krampissa kovasta työnteosta (istumisesta). Ain... | details |
