Question

How much rest do i need?

Hello

im a fourteen year old fast bowler.

two weeks ago i fell hard on my back and bruised a back muscle inbetween my spine and my shoulder blade on my left side im a right arm fast bowler by the way. it only hurts when i bowl and it really does aggrivate the muscle im currently on pain killers but that only get a tiny bit of the pain away so when i bowling it hurts. but only when i bowl it hurts in no other activities or normal life it hurts just when im bowling so i dont think its that bad it proberly just needs abit of rest

the doctor didnt think it was that bad and gave me a week for it too go

if the pain hasnt gone in a week come back and he will get a physio. its not hurting as much as it was

how long would you rest? give me a set amount of time to rest

Answer 1

Are you eating enough protein, taking enough minerals, restoring your muscles after bowling with simple carbs? All these are factors and not mentioned in your post.
