    Sad Ouch... I'm in so much pain

    I recently started working nude, and it involves a lot of floor work, that i guess my muscles weren't quite ready for. The other morning I woke up after a long night shift with awful pain behind my knee and in my calf. I went to the chiropractor and I explained what happened and she gave me some muscle rub stuff, and this vibrating thing on the back of my calf and said I was ok to work just stretch, so I did, b/c I just started at this club and didn't want to make a bad impression. So I worked last night and tried to keep pressure off of the sore leg and did ok. When I woke up this morning, the pain was so bad in both of my knees and calves that I cannot even bend them or put any pressure on them at all. I can't put my feet flat on the floor and I can barely walk. I actually have to tiptoe through the house to be able to move. I haven't left the house all day. I have been dancing about a year and a half now and have never experienced any muscle pains like this. And I am booked at 7pm tomorrow night, and am in a panic. I can't even sleep. I'm wondering if anyone has ever experienced anything like this and can give me some good advice to hold me over until i can see some kind of doctor tomorrow morning. thanks everyone.

    I experienced a bit of pain when I first started dancing but nothing intense. Maybe you pulled something? I would take some heavy duty ibuprofen. I hope you feel better .

    i say if the pain does not get better or improve but instead gets worse after 4 days go to a sports medicine doc.

    I may have many faults, but being wrong ain't one of them.

    Sounds like your body is going through shock. You probably haven't done a lot of activity in the last while before dancing. This is somewhat how my body reacted. Dont worry, it will take a week or so, and then it will get better by the third week.
