<human>: Can you provide a brief overview of the text?

Hi everyone I'm a long time lurker, first time poster so hopefully I've done this right. This actually happened a couple months ago but still a pretty big fuck up for me. I've always been a very active guy, I loved playing football as a kid and now in my lates teens I've started to play rugby. Ive always been slight pigeon toed meaning my feet turn in. Well for about the past five years when I'll be playing football or rugby, I would start to get back cramps in my calfs while running. It started off as just one everyone once in a while but soon reached a point of at least one a game, much to the concern of mother. Now here's the fuck up, I would always ignore it and continue to play and it would continue to get worse and worse. Now while playing a rugby match just this past September, my calfs had taken enough and they gave out on me. I couldn't stand for what felt like an hour and had to get carried off the field. Within a day I could walk again, but I couldn't run. Turn out because of the slight inward turn on my feet, it caused my calfs to have to do extra to work to support all my weight (200lbs). The cramps were from the strain at one point being too much for my calfs to handle so they would cramp up. Ignoring them allowed for it get worse and worse, to the point where I almost needed surgery. I'm now a few months into my message therapy and physical therapy, and still got a few more to go, so yeah, a pretty decent fuck up on my part.
