So I rolled my ankle fairly badly tonight in an intramural basketball game and was given horrible assistance. My fellow players dragged me to the side line where two campus rec trainers were waiting but had no ice or anything to assist me, so they had to go downstairs to get ice all the while i'm yelling in pain. Luckly another trainer was there 1 minute later to assist with ice this time but this person knew less about my injury than I did. When I asked for some crutches I was informed there were none to give me. The only thing Campus Rec did was fill out a report so NC State doesn't get sued.

So I'm just wondering why don't we have crutches for students who are injured I personally think this is ridiculous!!

I rolled my ankle at a pay-for-play facility and they didn't have crutches. What the fuck do you expect, son? They're a gym, not a fucking doctor's office. Crutches cost money.

2/25/2010 8:31:55 PM

I say this as someone who sustained a Grade III concussion during intramurals and had no problems with the treatment I received.

2/25/2010 8:35:30 PM

this is the first i have EVER heard of the worthlessness of campus rec, absolutely news worthy.

man up, bitch

there are crutches at the health center.

2/25/2010 8:35:43 PM

I rolled my ankle there and they called an ambulance. And they didn't ask me if I wanted it or not and I was 18 and retarded so I just let them take me to the hospital. It's the most shameful thing I've ever done.

I felt like such a bitch that 2 years later when I had my appendix removed I didn't tell anyone and just drove myself to the hospital to try and handle it myself.

As a matter of fact I think I broke my foot playing soccer on year...and they asked if I needed to go to the hospital...but by that time I had broken my feet so many times I was just like fuck it and I got a ride back to my dorm and called my parents to overnight me my boot

2/25/2010 8:37:54 PM

Man up, bitch.

2/25/2010 8:38:47 PM

did they call amberlamps?

2/25/2010 8:39:01 PM

you sound like a pussy. I busted the skin above my eye open playing basketball there. They helped me clean it up, gave me a free shirt and sent me to the ER to get stitches.

2/25/2010 8:39:34 PM

While it would probably have been a good idea for them to have ice packs with them just in case something like this happened I mean people roll their ankles all the time.

I mean I don't think I've ever seen someone yell out in pain from rolling their ankle though...I've yelled out in pain from having a charlie horse rubbed out of my leg...those fucking hurt...you're not one of those people that would do those horrible dives in high school and roll on the ground in pain while everyone looked at you like wtf is he doing are you?

2/25/2010 8:43:38 PM

this can't be a serious thread if the OP hasn't shown back up to debate it

2/25/2010 8:49:24 PM

One year in high school during a particularly tough soccer game it was the end and we were all feeling pretty fatigued...we were winning but it was still a really tough game...one of the forwards some how went to kick the ball but got the back of my calf...it cause my muscle to instantly cramp up and I fell to the ground in the more horrible pain I had ever felt...there was a damn softball in the calf muscle...they had to carry me off the field (this was when I was skinny and the trainer could pick me up and carry me off)

Well...on the sidelines they took off my clean and sock and shin guard so they could work it out and the moment pressure got put on the softball in my leg I thought I was going to die...I don't know if I could even explain that pain, it felt like my muscle was being ripped away from my leg...I mean looking back at it it's kinda funny cause I couldn't help it and I just screamed out in such agony that even the players on the field stopped momentarily to see what happened (I didn't notice it but that's what my teammates told me after the game)

That was probably the worst amount of pain I have ever been in my whole life...and I mean I've played soccer on broken feet and had half my boobs cut off.

2/25/2010 8:50:42 PM

did it look anything like this?

2/25/2010 8:51:07 PM

2/25/2010 8:51:59 PM

i got injured during last year's Intramural MMA Tournament




Campus Rec was quick with the ice packs and Ace Bandages

2/25/2010 8:58:30 PM

sawahash seriously made you look like a pussy, son, in this thread.

I have rolled my ankle 2 or 3 times and never used crutches. Ace bandage, yes. Crutches, no!

2/25/2010 9:00:49 PM

I mean I'm a girl...I am a pussy

But when you feel and actually see a softball size lump in your calf muscle that causes your whole leg to not be able to move...let me know how you feel...

I mean I've had plenty of injuries in soccer...broken feet, dislocated shoulders, bruised collar bone, concusions, rolled my ankles....I know all about the pains going on with sports...but that cramp I seriously thought that I was going to lose my leg nothing has compared to the pain I felt that day...

I know you see cramp and you think RAWR RAWR RAWR put a heating pad on it and massage it out...but this cramp was beyond anything I could imagine I'm sure there is probably a better word than cramp for it, but I dunno...I just knew that I thought I would never walk again...

which is practically NEXT DOOR

one time I was playing a rather aggressive game of basketball at the gym (with the bball regulars - all dudes) and thought that I sprained my ankle. one of the yellow shirts came and gave me ice and filled out the report and suggested I go to student health. it was late and the x-ray tech wasn't there so I made an appointment for the morning and went back to my dorm (some of the guys I was playing with helped me out to a car and drove me haha). the next morning I went to student health and it turns out my ankle was broken.

the people at the gym did their job - they're not trainers - they have a basic first aid and cpr certification. it would be out of their scope of practice if they did anything else. I know because I used to work there.

in conclusion:

man up, bitch

2/25/2010 9:55:12 PM

Oh, I would have driven you home, alright

2/25/2010 9:58:40 PM

And, man the fuck up.


Begonias, when I badly broke my foot, I drove a manual shift car for 2 days before I went to the doc. I was NOT going to the ER.

2/25/2010 10:24:35 PM

When you think about it the people who are supposed to help with injuries for a game where there are a lot of ankle injuries should probably have crutches.........just sayin.......

2/25/2010 10:33:03 PM

Why do people use this damn phrase? It drives me up the fucking wall. No one who uses it really means it, and if they do, and if they did, it removes any bit of credibility to the user.
