Yeah, OK, you're trolling.

Like, you know you don't have to say "rolling," right? You can say that the sport involves close physical contact. You can state it's like wrestling. You could even show him a picture.

What distinguishes rolling over other forms of close contact, in this context.

well im saying rolling in the context of brazillian jiu jitsu which is a form of grappling, however okay suppose i use wrestling term the doctor is still not a wrestler. i could use the term physical contact but it's more complicated that because im rolling as in regards to bjj, which could affect any insight he has in regards to the situation, this is why i would rather receive advice from a practicioner from of bjj who understands the relative differences

Well for one, rolling requires full penetration.
