Took GC to see ortho today. Good news, he's confident it's not a torn ACL! Thinks it's a kneecap injury. Will do MRI to see if it's only soft tissue or if there is any bone damage, and hopefully she can start PT soon. Bad news: at 19, her insurance does not cover PT. Good news: one of my egg clients is a physical therapist so hopefully he can guide us a bit. And his wife does therapeutic massage! She can bear weight on it without pain, so hooray! Progress!

how does he know its not torn if they didnt do the MRI?

He could tell from probing that the pain is in the kneecap, not in the ACL.

I guess thats good news. When will they do the MRI?

He is the same dr that did my shoulder surgery (torn rotator cuff) a couple of years ago. And I'm completely restored now. He also did my late MIL's hip replacements too.
