paulthenurse:Hey Arduous,
I suffered the same injury last spring. You will limp for a while but it will get better. I found that diving didn't hurt it at all. It is the stretching of the muscle (Pointing your toes toward your chin) that hurts. Pointing the other way (kicking with fins) actually relieves the pain.
My girlfriend calling it an "OGI" (Old Guy Injury) stung a little.
I was fine within a month.
