Knee part deux

It's Chondromalacia patella.

Doctor poked and rubbed my knees and said it's nothing serious. She then said she thought that the branch of the quadriceps muscle that moseys down to the knee felt "underdeveloped." Nice doctorly word for "weakling." Ah, the perils of the non-athlete official...

So she put me on a BUNCH of ibuprofen (I won't take that much...it doesn't hurt much) and suggested I ice it. And get good shoes. And stop sitting on my feet like I'm a pretzel. ("You could get away with that at 12, but not after 35," she said.)

More importantly, she's setting me up with a physical therapist--I would imagine to strengthen my legs. Maybe, before too long, I can be mistaken for an athlete.

I'll give it a few weeks and then make the call about camp.
