Guys I had a wee fall a few weeks back and instantly my back was very painful. This soon eased and the next day my knees were very painful instead. I went back to work and tried to get on with it but after three days I went to A&E when I couldn't get a GP appointment. The doctor I saw initially said she would put me in a knee brace and see me back at the soft tissue clinic then another doctor came along and gave me knee exercises instead and discharged me. Two weeks later and still in enough pain to stop me sleeping I went to my GP who sent me back to A&E who sent me for an MRI scan. This took nearly two weeks to get an appointment and a further week for the results.
Yesterday I called for them and the have said the scan shows nothing untoward. I honestly have no idea what to do next. I'm waiting a week for my next GP appointment and she said chances are she'll refer me to physio which takes 6 months.
My question is maybe a dumb one but what exactly does the MRI show? Does it cover ligaments, tendons etc? I can't believe it showed nothing given the levels of discomfort I'm in 6-7 weeks after in accident.
