When i was young i was kind of different from the girls of same age.. i dont like playing with barbie dolls or masa masa.. playing hide and seek; and catching were always on the top of my priorities... i enjoy running not as in slow jog but it's the hard core spriting... i like the "dash" feeling during the run and also the wind blowing onto my face... And, also i always like to speed up when running downward slope to enjoy the "extra" bit of speed.. not only that it actually allows me to keep my mind off from other things and focus during that few seconds of dashing... and it is a way for me to vent my anger too... i hope i can continue to run like the past.. but i really doubt so based on the recent incidents..
i started to feel the pain on the medial side of my right knee since Apr/May... i thought it was a muscle strain coz i felt it a few times during my track and field training when i was in Sec4, and the dr believed so too... but the pain din go off for weeks... and my physio friend felt that it seems to be a muscle imbalance issue becoz of my gaits. i subsequently went for a running assessment to look at my weight distribution on feet and the results were i tend to over pronate during my run. and a pair of control shoes and knee support were invested. and the pain did went off gradually.. however recently the pain came back when i increased the intensity of sports in a week, and aching pain increases when i redistributed all my weight onto my right for more than 1 min. in addition there seems to be an increase in trip and almost fall incidence rates over the past 1 month. multiple falls occurred during the past 2 days of captain balls and these falls werent mostly caused by collisions. i still remembered that there was one moment when i jumped for the ball, sudden weakness was felt on my right leg, and i fell when i landed. yesterday when i was running from novena square trying to catch up with my teammates after lunch, i had a sense of 力不从心. i found it difficult to do my striding as weakness set in. things worsened during the evening games, despite i wanted to play at least a full half game. my knee basically gave way when i was running and there was a moment that i limp. all the bruises were found on my right leg. a few of my physio friends had asked me not to continue to play, and one of them did explain the consequences if anything happened--- might not be able to do any sports in the future if it is really a ligament issue not balance. i did ponder abt this issue for a while but i decided to continue to play last night as it holds an extra meaning...
it might be rare to see the 3 guys from my dept playing together in the future. 我真得很想最后一次和他们一起拼命。。。 and i did view it as my last game before i consult the dr and get the final verdict. but unfortunately i din get to play much as they were worried that i will further injure myself if i continue to fall.
aching pain is still constantly felt and it increases when i walk more than 10min... planning to see a dr soon.. but fearful of the findings.. maybe ignorance is a blessing.. and i wan to continue to run..
