Dak felt a "pop" in foot during practice

[Jipper]

Seriously, you really don't know how scar tissue in joints work? The scar tissue around injuries like this can literally last your entire lifetime. It can keep breaking off in small segments for decades. Anyone who has ever broken a bone or a torn ligament in a joint can tell you all about it. I have had five such injuries. A broken ankle (yeah ironic huh), a torn AC joint, a torn MCL, a broken thumb and a broken wrist. All except the wrist are more than a decade old. The ankle is 40 years old. The knee is about 35 years. The thumb and AC joint are about 30 years .. All still have scar tissue in them and I can still feel small bits of scar tissue breaking off in them from time to time. It's a fact of the human body. I've felt these little pops for decades. Every once in a while they cause actual pain.. but most of the time they just irritate me for a few minutes and I keep doing whatever it was I was doing. I should point out that in my case I only went to a professional physical therapist for the thumb and the wrist. The rest I rehabbed on my own. PT is supposed to help break up as much of the scar tissue as possible but it can't get it all. Time has to get the rest.

Nope I don’t know and I guarantee you many many other peopl on here don’t as well.

however many thanks for the explanation very much appreciated.

Always a good choice.

Is the game on yet… geez.. watching these games and the rest of the East is going to win. Left up to us or we start as last in our division. No pressure..

I hope you're kidding. Nothing will get decided in week one. And watching the other teams in the division stumble around today I am not the least bit concerned about any of them. Philly has a high school passing attack and can't stop anybody. The Giants still have Daniel Jones as their QB and the Ratscums got Wentz. And the Giants defense so far has been the best of the other three. The Cowboys defense should be orders of magnitude better than all three.

Lol.. super sloppy football going on. I expect the same in our game..

 

[TheMightyVanHalen]

They're uneducated fans that root for a player above the team.

Pay them no mind.

It's about the Cowboys, not Dak.

Wow. After reading that you're either the biggest clown on this board or you have issues. Since I don't think you're clowning, you have issues. I actually feel bad for you. I really do. Something tells me you have no one to talk to and that's why you practically live on this board. I'm the biggest talker this world has ever seen, and I'm easily found outside this board, I would love to talk with you. Please hit me up. From now on I'm not going to argue with you anymore, brother. I'm going to find somebody else to argue with. Lol jk

Go Cowboys!

I assume you aren't a doc, but unless I am wrong scar tissue isn't a good thing to have to live with, and if he can hear a "pop" how can this be normal? lol.

I did not say it's "normal". Not sure how you made up that lie.

None of it is particular good. But....I shall repeat, the extent and hinderance remains to be determined. If you have some objection to THAT statement let me know but it seems reasonable.

you took offense to what I said, wasn't questioning but was curious if you know the extent that scar tissue can hurt, as I have experience with the threat of it with a rotator cuff tear I have, and was told scar tissue could be more painful than the injury...wasn't a lie, geezus you guys on this board

 

[PMC-2022]

No worries...

It was just a blister from a different shoe or something.

Can't believe you guys believed that shoe story lol

I said it once and I'll say it again. That leg will be an issue for the rest of his life regardless of playing football or not. It's just not possible for it not to be after how bad the break was.

Pretty sure his ***** opened up and his heart fell out

 

[Vtwin]

Oh snap… I just felt a pop when I got up to get a beer. What y’all think it is. Am I good to go for the game.

You got a new couch didn't you? It must be the new couch.

 

[Jipper]

Man I love micah

 

[Jipper]

Let's go!

 

[shabazz]

Pop go the weasel cuz the weasel say pop……..

 

[Mobinvans]

Well his game has no pop…

 

[jrumann59]

He had an MRI?
That's serious stuff!

if you are paying him $40M year, you would do an MRI on a previously injured joint to rule things out.

Makes sense !

You acted like I said it was normal. And some bull ship about bring a doc. Do go ft yourself .

 

[eromeopolk]

Well things changed.

 

[Avery]

All a misunderstanding, by 'ankle', he meant 'thumb'.

 

[shabazz]

Wake me when he misses a game this year.

Wakey wakey, Kenneth……he’s missing way more than just one game this season

wow, that chicken didn’t take long to roost.

Yes, injury prone.
