| Intercostal strain Hi. I'm new to the forum and just started training for my first sprint tri about three months ago. I strained an intercostal muscle at the bottom of my left rib cage - not even sure how. Has anyone had this kind of strain before? I've read about them on a few rowing forums actually and I guess they take forever to heal. I don't want to stop my training but also do not want a permanent injury. Anyone else had this type of injury and if so, how did you deal with it? |
