in 4 weeks with my husband and grandson.Today grandson (13)
injured himself at school and is on crutches and has an appointment with a surgeon in 10 days (when the swelling goes down) xray shows nothing broken.
He had been so excited about this holiday and now is devistated he might still be on crutches.
If he hasn't torn a ligament is 4 weeks enough time for his leg to heal?

Please have him ICE it frequently,my recent knee injury, the Dr. told me that was one of the best things I did. As the x ray shows nothing it may be a bad sprain which can sometimes be painful. Age 13 is most certainly in his favor. Good luck,please keep us posted. ICE! and TLC!

If nothing is torn, that sounds long enough to me... but I know nothing!  |

Even if the ice is uncomfortable for him,make him do it. No lions and tigers to see kind of bribery may work on him.

Pookie ~~ how is his knee now, this many hours later?

Bixa just got out of bed  so havn't heard (7am) He is coming to spend the day with me while his parents are at work , thats when he will get the treats. He did tell me last night that he would finish stacking our winter wood today  He has been doing it for a few years for extra pocket money. He is scared I will finish stacking and he will not get the $ for our holiday. He will be here soon so i can give you update. |
