When I was playing baseball back in high school (i think i was about 17 or so) and laid out for a groud ball between 3rd and SS. Immediately after I FELT AND HEARD the pop, and so did the SS. OUCH!!! Very painful in the beginning then it slightly slacked off. I laid there for a second and let the play finish. Obviously time was called and the coaches came out and helped me off the field. It was pretty apparent what had happened so everyone knew. As I'm walking off the field it decides to pop back into place. Now that was the real pain but dwindled pretty quickly. Needless to say I sat out the rest of the game. I drove home and talked with the parents and we decided (mainly me) to not go to doctor or anything. I mean all they'll do is tell me to do is rest it, give me a sling, and take my money so no thanks. This is where my question comes into place. I went to the doctor not too long ago because it has on and off bothered me (pretty bad at times) to get it checked out. He said he saw minor (very minor) damage to the area around the ligaments and such just form it being more beveld out now to a certain degree. His only solution was physical thereapy. NO THANKS! That gets very expensive for something no more major than this. Now, what would you guys reccomend to build that area back up inside and to get it back to par?! PLEASE HELP!!!!
