Thought I would give a quick update. Doing good, just have a lot of residual swelling in my rectus femoris. Its visible all the way from the insertion to about 4 inches down. You can feel a large amount of swelling almost like I am holding liquid in that spot.
I have been going to PT twice a week, mostly manual therapy. The therapist was able to move the lump of swelling around. This makes sense as I am still having trouble lifting my leg. I thought it was the psoas, but its to the left of it on the anatomy chart. I was reading the rectus femoris is also a primary hip flexor.
May reach out to HSS and see if they want me to come in. Hopefully they can drain it or give me a cortisone shot.
Thanks,
Larry
