So I saw the movie "The Dark Knight Rises" on Friday night. In it, Eccentric Billionaire Bruce Wayne, as he is often titled, had gone missing from the public eye for about 8 years. When he finally decides to make a re-appearance, he goes to see his doctor who tell him, among a whole list of problems, that he also has a total loss of cartilage in the knee joints and somewhere else I forgot.
Does Batman do the right things to help himself along? Let's see: What can help Batman?Weight reduction: Bruce puts on what I'm sure is a heavy suit and runs around the city
Avoiding excessive stress on the joints: Kicking in people's faces, climbing rock walls with no support, and helping out catwoman-no good there
Physical and Occupational therapy: gets sent to an underground jail and Alfred leaves him citing craziness! Oh but there was a doctor in the jail so I guess that's ok
Wearing mechanical support device: mechanical knee aid given him by the good Morgan Freeman so he can kick walls in?.......ding ding ding!
Of course he will just have to come in for pain management through massage, exercise education and range of motion exercises done at home.
