Basketball

Dislocated my shoulder playing basketball 4 weeks ago from this Tuesday while playing at Wilson Park in Torrance.  It quickly popped out but I felt it pop back in.  I played one game after and did pretty well.  I was going to drop my stuff off at home and go to the hospital, but then I saw the traffic on the way to the hospital and decided I was fine . . . great decision.  I waited 2 weeks to play again and made sure I didn't even sleep on that side or lift while I was at the gym.  That time I played, I went off.  We lost the first game but I scored about 5-6 of our 7-8 points.  We won the second game and I scored 8-9 of our 11 points, but I accidentally injured the guy guarding me, so I decided to sit out the next game after he left.  My shoulder got pretty sore during this time; although, it felt strong while I was playing.

I played again today, twenty-one against my dad and uncle.  I quickly got to 20 while they had 6 and 4 . . . it took them awhile to warm up.  I struggled to make the last three but I finally did and good thing because they had caught up.  After the game, my shoulder began to slightly burn then it really started to hurt.  It goes without saying, but I'm making a doctors appointment for right after I get back to Los Angeles.
