It's been a sore couple of days. I've had Teddy checked and he has minor bruising on his poll and the top of his jaw, otherwise he is doing fine.
The swelling on my knee went down after the first day to reveal a half golf ball size bump and bruise beside the kneecap, and that has reduced to about half again this morning. The bruising to my groin is still black and blue and you can see three distinct lines for each time he reared up and lifted me off the ground!
It's painful when I initially sit so I hope that will be bearable for tomorrow's eventing clinic or I'm going to be in pain with every bounce! But on the positive side it could well teach me to be much more gently with my sitting when rising to the trot!
Although I'd like to feel the wind in my hair and ride away I will have to be sensible about this and see how I'm doing tomorrow. Everybody keep your fingers crossed for me!
Go Teddy!
