Hi I just turned 49 and am an an ex athlete, well I'm still an athlete but lately my body has been betraying me I played soccer and swam in HS and collage and trained martial arts for twenty years. All that ware and tear has taken its toll. I was just wondering what other older athletes are doing to cope with pain and stiffness? What type of injuries have you had to deal with.
Right now I'm dealing with a torn rotator cuff and my have to have surgery. But there a slew of other injuries that are coming back to haunt me.
