First trip to Physical Therapy.

Routine questions:
rate your pain? mine is 1 on a scale of 1 to 10
any trouble doing anything? Using push mower makes knee sore, little trouble conducting baseball practice.

Perform movement and measure for Range of Moition - alingment and range of motion perfect; actually my injured knee has greater range of motion than my other knee, according to the therapist.

I'm put on a stationary bike for 10 minutes and then given six home exercises to perform, and put on 2 sessions for three weeks with the therapist.

I did have a concern of stretching and pulling of my knee, but that never happened. Proves that 90% of human worry never comes to frutation.

I still have a little tightness in my knee.

I'm ready to mow the lawn with the push mower, but my wife will not agree to this until after the therapy sessions are over. I'm restricted to using the riding mower only.
