No operation - she drained fluid out of the thing and told me to rub some dirt on it and walk it off....

No kidding - she says the bone chip will either dissolve or be encapsulated with scar tissue....they don't like cutting there because of the nerve bundles running through that area....

I have to say draining the fluid made all the difference in the world, first because one of the most beautiful young women I have ever been within 10 feet of was smiling while she hurt me so bad my eyes watered and I might have peed a little, and second because I got immediate relief from the worst part of deep ongoing pain.

I rode the bicycle for about an hour yesterday with nothing more than Ibuprofin....sore as hell today but nothing worse than a bad bruise would deliver.

Unless I touch the place where it's actually chipped. Then we gets the stars and birdies.

Of course I banged it on a doorjamb getting out of bed this morning.....
