I'm calling it a firearm injury. Pulled or torn hamstring. X-rays showed nothing broken. MRI scheduling is prolonged so don't know the extent of muscle damage. I heard a "pop" and then a lightning bolt shot from my hip to my toes. Almost passed out from the pain.
#2 and #3 were visiting and had brought the boys, one five year old and two who are two years old. Toys everywhere on the floor. Stepped over a nerf gun in the kitchen. Turned around and stepped on it. Nearly 60 year old peeps should not attempt the splits, but this one did.
Thigh is still swollen and I did it on Sunday. Lateral movement attempts result in the same lightning bolt sensation. Going to see what my regular doc suggests I do as follow up.

Hope it it nothing major. Take care of those legs!
I hope everything works out AOK for you!! I had been wondering why you hadn't been posting but since this only happened on Sunday I would guess you are doing other important stuff like family things!!
A pulled hamstring will take a couple months to fully heal. I wish you well.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Ouch, no fun. Hope you heal and recover fully.
That sucks, hope for a speedy recovery. Grandkids are still a lot of fun.
Hope the DEMOCRATs dont find out and institute legislation to ban nerf guns.
Glad to hear you survived that, get better soon.
Oh no, hope you heal up quickly, this is a great time of the year to be outside.
I wouldn't be posting this story on an open forum in this day and age, Susie. Some idiot will start calling for the ban of Nerf guns!
Hope you heal quick.
Those things will also put an eye out!! 😁........just sayin!
Oh no. Hope it is minor and temporary.
Was wondering why we haven't heard from you in a while. Take care of those legs.
Ouch!
prayers
AVN on upper hip socket?
