It's hockey insight, not beer league insight. Those injuries don't heal in a couple days. They feel better, but they certainly aren't healed. Without resting them straight through for a week or two, they linger and bug you. Lots of similar injuries in other sports that are exactly the same way. Basketball, football, etc.
The point is really simple. The more rest, the better those things feel. It doesn't take long for professional athletes to get back up to speed after a week off.
Like you know what injuries feel like. Isn't your body far superior to everyone else's and practically invincible?
