1st Doctor Visit

I took the day off today and made my way to Indy for my appointment with Dr. Porter.  I was hoping that it would feel better by now, but it didn't so I'm glad I had scheduled the appointment back in mid October.

Methodist Sports Medicine, Dr. Porter, and his staff were all very pleasant.  Dr. Porter seemed to think I had retrocalcaneal bursitis and prescribed aggressive Achilles stretching (heel drops) for 2 months, along with some graston.  Dr. Porter seemed confident that this would fix the problem.  That being said, I scheduled a follow-up appoint for February 6th just in case it was still bothering me.  I am hopeful 2 months of stretching and some light running would do the trick.
