No, I just tore mine and was done....Yeah, H&F...

My limited understanding and with a current elbow problem(6months) is that they take a loooong time because of not much blood flow. I've been wrong and will again.

Good luck.

Sorry, couldn't resist. Apparently it helped Ray Lewis recover super fast. :awe:

If you're a football fan you'd get the reference. My sympathy to your plight.

Maybe see a primary care doctor to refer you to an orthopedist.

Or if you have fancy insurance, go see the orthopedist directly.
