that going to a DIS meet could cause so much pain for you later. Sorry, no new knees available at this time but lots of pixie dust and thinking cold compress.

Sorry you're in so much pain, Binny. Tons and tons of pixie dust for you!!! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Binny,
Sorry to hear that your knees are giving you such pain. You know, one of my best friends has PT for her knees too and the same thing happened to her when they taped them for her. She ended up ripping the stuff off after not even 3 hours....swears that she'll never have them taped again.

PD for you!~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*

 

[helenabear]

Sorry your knee is giving you trouble, Robin. Sending tons of PD your way to help it feel better quick!

Sorry to hear that this particular taping session did not go well.
I suggest you call the PT immediately. I am not sure why the taping would increase the joint pain. It is not supposed to do so.
If you can tolerate Ice packs.. try making a sandwich of ice, knee, ice.. for 15 minutes a couple of times tonight.

May I ask if this PT service is Sports Therapy oriented? I assume it is due to the fact it is located in your gym complex. btw.. did you do anything at the gym that may have exacerbated the knee problems?
Hope you are feeling better right quick.

Oh, Binny, I can sympathize!! My left knee, especially, is really hurting! I must have exercised incorrectly, and I see my doctor tomorrow. In the meantime, I use an Ace knee supporter, and ice it every evening. And ADVIL! Do you know what you did wrong? It just doesn't seem fair that you're in PT for it and it's hurting you so much!

PT ACTUALLY STANDS FOR:
PHYSICAL TERRORIST

OR

PAIN AND TORTURE



Just kidding folks.. many of you know I am a retired PTA..

Sorry to hear you're hurting, binny. Sounds like a good excuse to sit and Dis all night though.

 

[binny]

Thanks gang! Pardon my shameless ploy for sympathy.

I had ice on it all afternoon and its starting to feel a little better. I have no idea what I did I moved wrong I guess. I have no cartlidge left in either knee so they get really sore anyway but this was just a little more than I could bear this time. I normally handle it much better.


LOL Joy Who Knew? Actually I did it that night I think after I got home.


LOL at Physical terrorist Boy does THAT hit the nail on the head!

I have a PT meeting at 9 AM ( with my regular PT) and will talk to her about it. I dont think there is any permanent damage ( other than whats allready there)

 

[binny]

sorry Joan, I forgot to answer lol

It is a hospital rehab that is connected with the Y where I belong. they do a full range of services. I used to go to the trainer for our Hockey team when I worked for them and he used to tape it up all the time I never had that kind of pain with it before. The OT told me it was completely non restrictive and NOT to limp with it

OH well its off and it feels better I was supposed wear it till tomorrow when I see my reg PT but I just couldnt do it!
Thanks for caring
