Things that make you go GRRRRR.... (Part 2)

Yeah, one of the muscles there is just pulled into tight inflexible ridges and won't unlock. Some ibuprofen and cold gel helped, but it's still sore and inflexible.

I like the word diarrhea. It seems a fitting word to use as a swear
 
The muscle insert in my upper back that I was whining about earlier is now inflamed and enlarged.

It's huge, but only on one side, and only this ONE insert. The ones on my other vertebrae are fine.

I asked for that by doing deadlifts and powercleans I guess...

uhh... why not get to a physio and get it sorted? If it's as bad as your getting at then you need to get to someone who can give you an accurate assessment and solution to the problem.

Doesn't work like that in Ireland, Frodo

Corona - if you can't afford the medical, you really need to put the weights down for a while. Training with it, or even training just after it (just because you can't feel it, doesn't mean it's not there) will continue causing (possibly serious) damage.

Have you considered buying a foam roller?

PA - they don't have an NHS in Ireland - they have various private schemes which the government may contribute to in particular ways. I do think emergency treatment is free though. Although, living in the UK I'm not the best one to be talking about it!

No NHS here.

*sigh* Ok, I'll rest until the muscle tissue goes back to normal. That's gonna take a lot of willpower, lol.

No, good point on the roller. Probably gentler than the small rubber powerballs I use for SMR.
