Craig's Knee

It has been about a month since Craig started his physical therapy for issue with his knee and unfortunately he said that it’s more painful now than it was before he started. You can see where the “crack” is in his x-ray. The doctor told him that it’s common for this to happen but it’s not common for the piece to be so long.

He had a follow up appointment with the doctor last Friday and has been put on an additional type of PT for two more weeks. I’m not exactly sure what it’s called, but I know it involves wires and a device that has a dial that goes from 1 to 4. The doctor took his x-ray to the surgeon, who said that he would not touch it and that he should see a surgeon that specializes in knee injuries. So after the two weeks of PT he will have to get an MRI done so a different surgeon can look at it and see what has to be done. We will let everyone know when we know more.
