Painful symptoms lingering is different than the actual tissue still being damaged, and again there’s a lot the AT staff can do for pain modulation and also any lingering effects of lost motor control or proprioception. I think this is an important differentiation for people worried about the injury itself.
I’m honestly just not too worried about it bothering him after it heals. There’s stuff they can do for that. I’m not just making this up to be hopeful, I’m speaking from experience as a DPT.
I get it, and you’re right, pain is diff from healing. But the pain will be there, however I also agree that I’m not worried about it affecting Joe much either. He’ll play through it no matter how much or how little it’s bugging him.
