    Default Weird bowling injury

    So i pulled my groin bowling... its was very weird happened on my power step while my right leg was moving back left for the finish. Needless to say it hurts something fierce. don't know how long ill be out. I heard it takes a solid month for it to get nice and healthy again and i should stretch it out every time before i bowl now. anybody else ever pull their groin? or ever have some other weird injury?

    I've had almost every injury imaginable but not many WHILE bowling. Last night, out of nowhere, my middle finger started killing me. I couldn't even get my hand in the ball without excruciating pain. Took a look when we were done and the tip is all swollen with a lump on top of the knuckle. It still hurts to touch, even to type. Not sure if it's a clump of arthritis, tendonitis or a calcium deposit. Thinking of putting a splint on it and taking the grip out of that hole of a ball. I have league Monday and Tuesday plus have to get ready for tournaments that are coming up.

    A few years ago, I hurt my groin bowling. Didn't really pull it, just tweaked it. It made bowling a little tough for a while, but it wasn't too bad. Did it the same way, took a step as normal, then out of nowhere a little tweak. Sucks.
    Trying not to suck, one day at a time.

    I've stuck on the approach and pulled something in my butt before. Not something I ever want to do again.

    You could always come over to the sinister side till it clears up.

    I've hyper extended my left hip and pulled a back muscle(Feels like i've been punched in kidney).

    I've pulled my groin....,but it's much more fun to have someone else pull it...(groan).

    Yeah, I tweaked my groin about a week or two ago (while bowling). Just bowled through it, but it did hurt my next few outings.

    I've had a groin pull, it can be a bear trying to bowl with one.

    Stretching is key to therapy - and increase your fluid and electrolyte intake while you're healing. A warming pad can do wonders too.
