[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She should absolutely NOT run - the jostling would be terrible for healing. She can lay on her back on the floor and do leg lifts and such to work on stomach muscles/core. She can go for normal-paced walks (not walking a dog) to stay healthy from a cardiac level.[/quote]

Is this the doctor's advice? Being in a cast will keep what needs to be held together, held together. I would let my kid run if they felt up to it. Certainly no playing soccer, but I don't think I'm of the mindset that she can't do cardio exercises unless specifically instructed by the doctor. [/quote]

So why no soccer?  I've seen countless number if kids put bubble wrap around the hard cast and play soccer...including my kid when he was like 9. No issues.[/quote]

Different leagues have different rules. When my kid had a broken arm - he could play two weeks after the cast was put on. The league was more worried he would hurt others with his cast - hence the bubble wrap - but he played as soon as he could. [/quote]

Can you please share what LEAGUE has a rule that you can't play with a cast for two weeks after the cast was put on? Thank you.[/quote]
