Just means that the healing process takes longer, dependent on how fast the swelling goes down. I'm sure he had better options than ice + Tylenol to bring it down though...

Yep, I can't believe he played on that ... gotta' drain it twice now, once to get all the blood off, then a second time to get all the fluid that replaces the blood and woulda' been there in the first place without the further trauma. Maybe one more time after that, et ... at least, that's how they used to do it, maybe they got something more advanced going on now.

They drain it then give them a steroid shot in the same spot. That's how we do it at our office.

I don't think he's allowed to take a steroid shot is he?

I think he can get a shot of Cortisone for swelling.
