I was in my family doctor's office, yesterday, for an unrelated matter
(check-up
). I mentioned the tenderness I was having in my left knee. He said "Let's x-ray it". Cool.
They took one "shot" from about a 45deg. angle
(bottom to top
) and the negative shows a small bone spur, under my cap. Makes sense, as the discomfort I'm experiencing is very centralized. He seems to think I can control the inflammation with ice alone. I hope he's right. But, I haven't run on it in 8 days. And, I think it's still too tender to do so
(I'd planned to take 2 weeks+ off of it
).
Anyone ever experience anything like this? I have a friend who is a very good ortho
(ortho for the Clt, NC NBA team
). I'm gonna contact him, soon
(I have prior commitments that'll keep me from doing so for about 10 days
). He scoped my shoulder in '99 and did a WONDERFUL job.
Just checking to see if anyone else has ever had anything like this. Anyone ever had somehting like this scoped? How long before you could run, again, with no pain?
Thanks, in advance, for your repsonse
(s
).
