Im not the most active person on the planet but im starting to get little worried , i recently went paintballing with my mates , 2 days ago , you know crawling through the mud , hideing behind trenches thing and after 2 1/2 hours i was exausted . The next day my legs are dead , it hurts to wach and get up and down , like a straining above my knees , I also have stretch mark like marks on my arms and inside legs , mostly where I was hit bu the paintballs... I just want to know , do you think this will be permenant or will the marks ( dont know if they are stretch marks as my body has not changed alot recently ) will stay?

Hi Martin,

The marks will disappear and the soreness you are feeling will go away eventually. Paintball is a pretty rough sport if you are not active on a daily basis, you just happened to overwork your muscles.

Time will heal, hope you feel better soon.
