DS is 2014B. Sea year is in the rear view and graduation is starting to come into view. KP has been a difficult but rewarding experience for him and he's done well for himself.
Just as he was finishing sea year last November, he began complaining of a sore back. He went to the infirmary, they referred him to a couple of specialists, tests, MRI, etc. They couldn't find anything wrong. A physical therapist said one leg was longer than the other and prescribed exercises which he's been doing faithfully.
The pain is annoying, but does not limit him in any way.
I have two questions.
1. Does anyone have experience with this? How should he proceed?
2. If he continues to pursue treatment, will he be red-flagged in terms of future employment? His current plan is USCG, but that's not definite.
Thanks.
