FitTough

Hello All! I'm wondering what kinds of drum corps injuries you've experienced, but more importantly, what do your instructors say to do about them? Personally I tore up my knee when I marched, and all that could really be done was to lay off it (During finals? Yeah right!). Ice and Ibuprofen had to suffice. I'm interested to hear your stories. How you handled it, how your instructors handled it, etc. I'm looking for both common injuries (e.g. sunburns, muscle cramps, sprains) and uncommon injuries (e.g. broken tibia, staph infection). I've been out of teaching for the past 3 years, but I'm interested to hear if much has changed in regards to injury care and prevention. If you have a story or know of a situation in regards to health or injuries, I'd love to hear it! Keep fit. Stay tough. ~Ryan
