Rugby Calf Injury Support Sleeves
Calf Supports
Calf injuries are prevalent in rugby. Because of the powerful forces involved in rugby, calf injuries often result from rapid forward momentum or scrumming. Other major causes of a calf injury in rugby may include overtraining, running on the hard surfaces, stiff or weakened calf muscles, lack of exercise, and dietary factors. You probably have a calf injury if you feel pain, lumps and bumps over the bone, inflammation, and muscle spasms. Common calf injuries in rugby may include strain, sprain, shin splints, and calf tears.

You can wear a compression calf sleeve or wrap your sleeve; it will probably help to increase blood flow. It is also great in giving additional support and reducing the healing time. Compression also helps to warm and stabilize lower leg muscles and also reduces fatigue.
You can apply ice packs in the beginning, to reduce bruising and swelling. After 2 to 3 days, it would be best if you use heating pads. They may help to provide blood circulation and shorten the recovery.
Rest your lower legs and restrict any movement like stretching and contraction. Wear compression support or wrap your legs to protect your calves for extra support. Crutches can be practical depending on the severity of the injury and pain.
Tight calf muscles restrict lower leg range of motion and can cause extreme difficulty in walking or running. When you move, this movement toward the front of your foot can cause problems, including bursitis and inflammation.
