injured my face
I iced it immediately and it reduced a lot of the swelling and color – it looks a lot better in the pix then in the first few minutes after it happened.
I was rolling with a former wrestler in BJJ Class 117. I took his back and he stood up and did a forward roll. His shoulder and all his body weight landed on my face. Couldn’t get up for a while. I heard the sound of something getting crushed and my first thoughts were, “Oh no, I was just laid off – I have no insurance!!”
It’s all better now, three days later. I still have the redness on the nose and black & blue around my eye. My nose is tender to the touch though. I won’t go back to rolling until after my nose feels 100%. Hopefully it’s soon!
School had me busy for a few days so I wasn’t able to post. Will write up BJJ class 117 tomorrow.
