Michael Ciccotti, MD, of Philadelphia’s Rothman Institute, examined Mr. Lidge’s shoulder yesterday and ordered an MRI for tomorrow. The MRI will be compared with an MRI taken of Mr. Lidge in 2008.
If the MRI doesn’t show significant damage, Mr. Lidge will rehab his shoulder to treat the pain symptoms. Earlier in the preseason he suffered from biceps tendonitis.
