The Perils of Physical Therapy

Physical therapy wrecked my knee!  Seriously, this is ridiculous. After going to PT yesterday to find a way to improve my hamstring injury, I now have a stiff right knee.

I can't believe I used to just put on my shoes, go out the door, and run.  Now I've got an inhaler for my exercise-induced asthma, special stretching exercises for my hamstring injury, hammer toe exercises, roomy shoes designed for my gait, tart cherry juice to reduce inflammation, a strength-training regimen to follow, yoga classes to limber me up, compression socks, moisture-wicking shirts and bra -- and the problems keep getting worse!
