DD dislocated her shoulder, she was cleared by the team trainer to play but not do anything that causes pain-she's a catcher, dislocated her receiving arm. She had 2 daysoff a week and continied to do PT for her arm.
4 weeks later DD suffers a spinal injury. Out for two weeks, she could barley function anyway. After 2 weeks she was cleared to return. She now has numbness in her arm, shooting pain with jumping and blocking, cannot swing a bat. Doctor has advised her to stop playing or risk permanent injury, but at minimum 30 days no softball. Family history of degenerative disks, arthritis and few other back issues.
Games start soon, do you advise your DD to quit?
