What: Standard Doctorin' of the Captain's knee!
Who:
Raiden Morana, Captain
Marcus Kobra, Regular Doctor
Having just finished up a Sentry it was about time to see to the Ol' Captains leg. He'd been hemmin' and hollerin' for days now so it only seemed fitting. I got him sat down at the barracks, and began my examination.
- Pronounced limp
- Local Swelling
- General Pain
- Weakness
- Loss of Range of Motion
I ran his leg through some range of motion exercise to find that just about any motion caused undue pain or discomfort. The Captain described standing as "It just wants to bend in at any moment yer know?" Determining the injury to be some sort of torn ligament I fashioned up a brace for the Captain. It will immobilize his knee during his usual activities, though I wish he'd just rest and heal. If he doesn't. . .
I can always get the saw.
*A Sketch of The Brace*
Turning to the wee science experiment of mine I did concoct the following for his pains:
- Hemp Buds
- Hemp Flowers
- Arnica Flowers
- Bees Wax
- Comphrey root
- Helichrysum Flowers
- Sanct John's Wort
- Chamomile
- Wintergreen leaves
All combined formed a salve to be rubbed into the knee as needed. A simple warning not to eat it, I trust the Captain in this, hes not some recruit or a savage, or worse. . .
I parceled it out into a weeks supply and gave him some additional orders.
