@Andreas Roeim Thanks buddy! in 5 days he has from 0-12 degrees of DF and a locked post capsule to WNL on my protocol. But he has an active injury to the achilles so it needs to heal, once it does the mechanical stressor that was causing it should be gone. He wants to play but throbs after, sometimes I wish I could be just a dad not a PT/Dad! They want to play so bad but I have to explain to them what happens if they hurt it more. He literally just recovered from a growth plate fx of the hip 3 weeks ago and now this!

@Andreas Roeim acute strain of achilles, on the one hand I like working with them (when they listen) as it is good dad/child bonding time but on the other it is so hard to pull them when you see how hard they work to make xyz team and then you have to step in and say sorry you don't understand you could be out months if you don't rest:(
No Pain, No Gain is a Good or Bad Thing to You?
I have rehab protocols I have used for years, they are pretty predicable for me in my practice in terms of length of treatment and effectiveness. When I put a patient in pain during a rehab the whole thing takes longer. With the exception of frozen shoulder and total knee replacement rehab (you have to bend the knee) I NEVER put patients in pain. Thoughts? Comment below...

@Thao Nguyen I agree I actually ask them do you know the difference between muscle soreness like you worked out and pain? Because I noticed what you did great point
I Referred to Spine Surgeon
Patient presented with LBP and L LE radiculopathy after lifting at gym 2 weeks ago, went to ER and was cleared and sent home. I asked do you have bowel and/or bladder dysfunction, saddle anesthesia? No, she said I then tested her myotomes and L4 and L5 were weak. I said you need to see a spine ortho MD they will probably want to get an MRI. Part of being a good ortho primary care provider is knowing when to refer out!

I got yelled at by a business and they lost me as a customer.
A while back, I got a tune up before a road trip. While I was driving, my check engine light started flashing. I immediately pulled over because I knew that wasn’t a good sign. I found a repair shop nearby. Within about 10 minutes, the mechanic came out and asked, “Did you recently get a tune up?” I said yes. He told me the previous shop had left a wire hanging, and it could have caused serious engine damage or even a fire. Fast forward to my next oil change. I went back to the original shop because it was convenient, but I told them I almost didn’t return because of what happened. Instead of listening, the employee raised his voice and argued with me. Here’s what should have happened: “Thank you for letting us know. Let me review your service history and see what happened. I’m sorry you had that experience, and I’ll get back to you.” Even if they believed they weren’t at fault, they could have said: “After reviewing everything, we respectfully disagree with what happened, but we’re sorry for the frustration. We’d like to offer you a complimentary oil change for the inconvenience.” That response would have earned my respect. People may forget exactly what you said or what you did, but they will always remember how you made them feel. You can disagree with a customer without making them feel dismissed. If your business makes a mistake, whether it’s leaving something undone or simply missing an appointment, own it and make it right. A small gesture like a free service or a discount can turn a frustrated customer into a loyal one.
