Back to the Good Old Crutches

Yes..

my problematic knee has finally decided enough is enough and i am now back to using my good old crutches as it is.

The story starts on how i slipped unglamorously on the wet floor in my kitchen.. and my knee twisted medially causing my ligaments to be stretched. i suppose i have a bit of loose meniscus in my knee too.. that is why i had intense pain and my knee is now currently locked in one position. i can't extend it properly nor can i flex it fully.

So.. off to A&E of our famous Royal Infirmary fo Edinburgh and i was referred to the fracture clinic the next day. there, the orthopaedic doctor told me to come back in 1 week! said that i've gotta wait for the swelling to go down a bit before it can really be assessed.

well, well, well.

irony is... i am doing my locomotor rotation now.. and i go to d fracture clinic twice a week to observe my tutor and his patients. i suppose i took things a tad too far and now i've gone for role play..

the only problem is, i am Not the doctor
