A young boy goes to urgent care, he’s fallen and his knee is swollen – likely a soft tissue trauma or at worst a minor joint bleed. He’s given a brace, told to rest.

We’re no longer talking about a minor joint bleed, we’re talking about a joint bleed, that, if left untreated, could lead to permanent damage.
