Thanks for your prompt reply Paul. I am hoping he starts to feel better later this week. He may or may not need PT, he did have a previous neck dissection in May and already had radiation for another site this summer. His neck has always been quite tight so it may not hurt to try it out.

Did your scars heal well? We were concerned with him having 2 neck dissections in a short period of time might make it more visible.
