I went to a podiatrist today about my foot that I hurt really bad while skateboarding... They sent me to get x-rays done but when screening the x-rays they said my foot is too swollen to read them and they made me an appt. for next to find out for sure when the swelling goes down. I play college soccer and we move in soon. I was wondering would it be best to redshirt for the year? And also I ahve an appointment for tomorrow for my calf which I seen a RN today about but the couldn t get me in today and he thinks that there is a good possibility it may be torn. Do you believe that I won t be hearing good news?
