Hi again and thanks.

For swelling; we are waitng to get in with one of the MLD therapist I've researched (not many here in TO).

For the scar hardening; we are massagiang it in circular motion; sometimes I use my knuckles and press firmly. We do this for about 15 mins 3 times a day. Does this sound about right?

He's doing his stretches. Some of you say physio should hurt. Did you do yours with a therapist and what did they have you doing to make it hurt?

This tight feeling around the neck is driving him crazy.

Thanks
