Re: Thanks Mollie...


I am trying to picture how you have trapped a nerve with a branch Is there any swelling at all Moli, I would consider taking some anti-inflammatory medication Moli, incase there is any swelling inside your knee pressing on the nerve which would cause the symptoms you describe...

Re: Thanks Mollie...


It would be a good idea to have a Health & Welfare section on CP wouldn't it?

Re: Thanks Mollie...


Ice packs may help Mags but I think anti - inflammatory tablets would help more with the pain..and reduce any inflammation there..They have to be taken regularly though as their effect is cumulative...

Re: Thanks Mollie...


Its not sore all the time, probably just a bump..nothing serious..Mollie has the vet tomorow, she has sore eyes..Think it may be the grass, she needs an antibiotic though..been bathing them, but has not helped...Don't panic Mags, she is okay!
