           Just published today. Our review discussing why platelet poor plasma is a better injection option than #PRP for muscle injuries. Included is a case series of baseball players I successfully treated with PPP. Hope this helps. @GeorgeRaumDO @C_KenyonDO

             Greatest pure athlete of all time. I will die on that hill. 
           Bo Jackson last played in the big leagues in 1994, yet stories of his amazing strength, speed and ability remain fascinating. Harold Reynolds, our hilarious guest this week, tells a story that we had never heard. Bo Knows, indeed. Listen at  https://t.co/13q9q6U7h2

             I’m still not over this. It’s not just that he punched 10 over 6 shut and hit 3 bombs. It’s down to the details. He punched dudes out on 100mph and launched baseballs literally out of the stadium. Just dominance on a level we’ve truly never seen before.

             Another Braves season in the books. I took home the belt this year as the “winningest team doctor”. Being associated with this team, these elite athletes, and the MLB is truly an honor. Hopefully there are many more seasons and many more wins to come.

             Remember, chondrotoxicity is dose dependent. Pain relief is not. Use the lowest possible dose of corticosteroid to limit deleterious effects on cartilage. In this well done RCT we see 10 mg triamcinolone works just as well as 40 mg for knee OA.  https://t.co/cqZsIlAo4S

             For those confused about this. He is likely having first rib resection and scalenectomy surgery for vascular TOS. Recovery and RTP with this procedure for vascular TOS is much more reliable than for neurogenic TOS, which is what most people think of when they hear “TOS”. 
           Philadelphia Phillies ace Zack Wheeler will miss the rest of the season. He was diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome and has been recommended to undergo surgery, which would cause him to miss 6-8 months, according to the team.

             A good lesson for everyone. You never know… 
           30 years ago today, I made my Major League debut in Montreal. I got to Olympic Stadium so early they had to find someone to let me in the clubhouse because it was locked.(noon for a 7:30 game) I walked into my first Big League clubhouse and it was just me, all alone. No players,
