Pain in my left knee

No, usually they just write it off and sell it to a debt collector.

Haha, yeah it's considered a civil matter and isn't criminal unless under very specific circumstances and none that apply to medical bills as far as I know.

$1200 for a jab and no stitches is a rip off, gave my grandfathers address in the hospital and honestly thought my insurance would cover it but I was 3 months deep into my stay so it ran out.

Glad I can return stress free!

I am missing the latinas in Miami already!

Not to sidetrack the thread but does anyone deal with clicking knees? I've put my palm of my knees as i walk downstairs and they click?

Knee clicking accompanied by a sensation of the knee "giving way" could be indicative of subluxation, which means that the kneecap temporarily and partially dislocates. Subluxation is less severe than complete dislocation but can still be unsettling and sometimes painful. The clicking sound might occur as the kneecap moves out of its groove and then back into place.

Subluxations are bullsh1t . Chiros don't fix fvk all dude, the people that go to them are brainless morons. Chiros have killed loads of people with their 'adjustments'. You might aswell be prescribing them a big mack and fries care of Benny Hinn

Subluxations are orthopedic injuries treated by orthopedists, with PT, bracing and anti-iflammatories and pain killers - they can be as bad as to need surgery. This is usually a CCL injury (cranial cruciate ligament) or ACL injuries (anterior cruciate ligaments).

In ACL reconstruction, the damaged ligament is usually replaced with a graft taken from another part of the patient's body, such as the patellar tendon or hamstring tendon. Alternatively, a synthetic graft may be used. The goal is to restore the stability of the knee joint, which the ACL helps to maintain. Post-operative care generally involves a rehabilitation program focused on regaining range of motion, strength, and function.


p.s. Not sure how you summoned chiropractors from the response.

What is a Subluxation? – Tri State Clinic North Chiropractic of Chattanooga

Ok Einstein, it has been said we rise to the level of our incompetence.

The term "subluxation" in a medical context refers to the partial dislocation of a joint. Unlike a complete dislocation, where the articulating surfaces of a joint are fully separated, a subluxation involves only a partial separation. This condition can occur in various joints of the body, including the shoulders, hips, and knees, among others.

Thank you Doctor vax.

 

[Pierce Manhammer]

You’re more than welcome. I’m glad to have widened your understanding of the word subluxation.

As a point of interest, I’m used to dealing with imbeciles so edumacating them when needed is not a burden, but an act of love for my fellow humans.

Gotta love Amuricans, the only healthcare they get is from the back of a Cracker Jack's box. My wife and I are both nurses Piss Mansplainer.

Well that ‘splainz it, guess you weren’t paying attention in the 2 years of A&P you were supposed to have taken…

Beeeeep Code Brown nurse @BoomToTheMoonAlice - probably really a janitor because all the cmts/lmts I know know more than you do and you’re an RN? Pshaw

Although I guess you might be able to make it through a 16 Week emt-b class, then think you’re a orthopedic surgeon.

I’m going to play DNA researcher now and diagnose you with an inherited case of arsehollery.

RPNs, we hang out in long term with all your future girlfriends.

 

[Pierce Manhammer]

I’m sure you try to, but during rounds notice they’re crossing and uncrossing their legs, losing their voices, twirling their ponytails and “following up” with ME, not you.

And RPNs cannot practice in the US as such, at most you’re LPNs (certificate program) here as opposed to an RN’s bachelors degree. Again explains your lack of orthopedic knowledge.

I thought Doctors were supposed to be smart, you must be a GP.

If you think it's bad now wait til after 40.

Pilates is good for flexibility...I used to do it for a while to help with muscle ROM that was getting way too tight when I lifted really heavy.

Very effective and very challenging too. Looks easy but is not.

If I could go back in time I sure would do some thing's differently. The body is pretty resilient in our teens and twenties and doesn't always give us the negative feedback we need to make adjustments. I try to instill in the younger guys what I wish I had done. And unless I'm hovering over them making them do it, they just blow it off. My mid 30s was my strength apex with a mid 600 squat and a 710 DL. I did nothing but light half a$$ warm ups. At age 44-45 the injuries started piling up. Torn pec, torn lat, torn hamstring, fractured my vertebrae, and herniated several disc. I continue lifting but I spend about as much time doing mobility work before and stretching after as I do on my lifts. Besides my Chiropractor, I'm starting to think supplementing with collagen is starting to pay off. I believe it's in our 30's we start losing about 1% of our body's collagen a year. BTW, I still believe lifting is as important to muscle and bone health as anything but bad lifting and a loud ego will wreck you.
