Lots of ways you could have done it Richie, even in your sleep. Just rest and get better.

And they're probably right. I can pull a muscle sneezing. If you stop exercising, as you do later in life, it's really easy to pull/tear/strain something. And, of course, because we are getting a bit older, we are convinced it's something really serious. A heart attack.......at least. ;D

You can tear muscles and the adrenalin and endorphins will make you completely oblivious of it until they wear off.  As a word of advice from a pre-rehab perspective every morning and night take the dressing off and do some very very gentle stretches and movements.  Start off small and put an ice pack on it every evening.  Weekly hot baths will also help.

Otherwise, take it easy dude!
