Re: Re: Sudden Swelling Under DOC Band?

Well, its still uncertain.  Current thinking is maybe a lymph node.  We're doing some light banding tonight to see what happens.AndyOn Feb 22, 2006, at 10:51 AM, Carol G. wrote: Andy, Please let us know what the ortho says today.

We did a couple hours with the band on yesterday evening, with no troubles.  He wore the band for the second half of the night -- no redness.  There's still a little puffiness, though.  We're going to keep it on.  CT wants us to call back today, but I'm thinking that the helmet's effect was secondary.  Weird stuff, though.AndyOn Feb 23, 2006, at 8:53 AM, Carol G. wrote: Andy, How scary.

Let me know how he is today, will you?                                        CAROLG > > > > > > Carson has been wearing his DOC band since 1/20/06, and he's been > > > doing fine, though I can't say we've noticed any correction. > > Tonight > > > at bathtime we took his band off to find a large area of swelling. > > > It  was pinkish at first, and very prominent.  It subsided quickly > > > and isn't really visible, but it can still be felt.  Carson did not > > > seem to be in pain, nor was the swollen area tender to the touch. > > He > > > did keep reaching back to grab at the area.  He is sleeping without > > > the band tonight. > > > > > > Has anyone had a similar experience?  Any idea what this could be? > > > > > > Andy in Miami > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > For more plagio info
