    The Story.
    So I hit my elbow on the lift like I have done 10,000 time. Two days later it's swollen.
    Mmmmm time for work well.
    Yeup infected. Ok antibiotics hot packs and go see the dr to have it drained.
    Ok.
    Dr office called and app setup.
    So I go. Yeup "we don't drain those" chance of secondary infection.
    So your not. Nope.
    Come back in two weeks.
    Yeup he's a friggin foot dr.
    I want a dr that does something from the waste up.
    He never comes in to see me. Has the practitioner relay info back and forth.
    Yeup, I need surgery.

    Wtf.

    FUCK YOU..
    No draining, no steroid injection. Nothing but I need surgery.
    Work well is pissed.
    So they they send me to therapy to manipulate the bursa to drain it. Nope don't work.
    I know it won't cause I just about used a pair of pliers on it.
    So now I'm off the meds. Still swollen and leaking.
    Therapist calls work well.
    So now I don't go back to therapy. I'm now going to see another ortho dr that works on athletics.
    Dam... Waiting for a call in the next day or two.
    So in two weeks I've seen 3 dr's. Had antibiotics. And they all say it's swollen and something needs to be done.

    Im Worried this may turn into a bursa operation if nothing is done soon. Then I'm out at least 6 weeks minimum. Arm in sling 2 weeks.
    Dame it.
    It doesn't hurt, no restrict of motion.

    Now I have to get winter prep done fast cause if it comes down to surgery everything needs to be done cause I'll be useless as tits on a bull for snow storms and shoveling. I'll be useless.

    At least try to drain it. Give me a cortisone shot or steroids or SOMETHING.........

    THEN I HEARD SOME PEOPLE DONT DO ANYTHING AND JUST LET IT RIDE....

    Sorry to hear about this Buddy but something needs to be done ASAFP as these infections can get really bad as I mentioned MRSA or STAPH and you don't want these to go unchecked or untreated

    Hey,

    Anyone here with Netflix ? I do not watch series shows but will watch movies wondering if it is worth 10 bucks a month over Amazon prime , Or what I already on a drive and xfinity can offer. I got a lot of time to waste between now and when I retire lol
