Bob's MRI Results - Good news!

No new tears/breaks or other issues seen in his MRI scans. Doc says that the arthritis (jagged edges of the bone) probably irritated some tissue causing the internal bleeding and swelling. Doc drained some additional blood out and gave Bob a shot of cortisone and sent him home.

Bob is feeling good - totally relieved that no surgery or other treatments will be needed - just needs to be careful to not reinjure it. So, after his vacation is over he can go back to work unrestricted - yay!
