Re: Road Rash
Thanks everyone and from the posts it looks like most agree that keeping it covered and moist is a good (better?) direction. I made an Amazon Prime order so in a couple days I can put the dressing on my knee until June 28th MRI. Maybe the wound will be somewhat healed by that point and more inflammation reduced considerably by July 6th doctor consult.

The ortho told me to get some motion in my leg even though he was not sure about the ACL until the MRI. I did some very slow cautious ultra light leg press using both legs for stability this morning mainly to get a deeper range of motion. When finished with that session walking in general felt a lot better. Most of the discomfort I feel at the moment is the pressure from fluid around the knee. I would like to try some very light spinning this evening and this week at ~100 watts at maybe 30 minutes to an hour each session. I tried light spinning on the trainer last week, but the discomfort was too intense at the top and fluid was seeping out of the wound from the pressure.

I am pretty eager to get back out on the road and I hope surgery is not needed.
