living in a place where I am not sure about doctor's diagnosis, i would need your opinion. -1.5months ago,during wrestling training I have injured my oblique stomack muscles (left side) . -It hurts when i caught, and there is a soft area on the left side. When I put myself in position to do push-ups, there is some tissu that comes out slightly. The soft tissu ( the injured muscle it seems) spread from the top of one left cage-rib down to the belly. have you had this kind of injury? The doctor i saw said I did not need injury, but i do not trust doctors here ( I am in beijing). How long idd it take you to heal? Did you keep doing sport, or did you stop all activity untill full recovery ? It is late and i am not sure I have give you the clearest explanation...but really thank you forehand for your help. I just come off a knee injury, now this thing...i would like to at least know how long it is going to take. laurent
