Water Jogging

After almost 4 weeks of not working out I was able to hit the pool today for 20 minutes of water jogging, I was hoping for 30 minutes, but I am rather dependent on my wife to get up and drive me at 7am to the pool.  But it was wonderful, I put the water [...]

Bruising from an air cast

Hi all,
I survived my first day in the air cast, but my foot is quite bruised, I cannot find any info on that, other than some small blurb basically saying it is pressure bruises.  Any opinions out there or experience on the matter.  Before I panic and head for my doctors office or sit around [...]
