Tonight was sparring night at Karate; I have sustained the following:
- Jammed right great toe
- Contusion, right patella and suprapatellar tendon
- Bilateral quadriceps contusions
- Right elbow contusion
- Left thumb subungual hematoma
(And let the record reflect that I gave better than I got. Well, except for one nasty Sandan who got in some good licks.)

Here's a way to procrastinate your pain:
Get into a grappling martial art, like Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
After rolling around for awhile, I feel fine. I'm forgoing bruises now for joint replacements in twenty years.
Your style kicks low, I guess (good plan).
Have you read James Canney's Martial Arts Injuries (1991, London, A & C Black)?
