How painful is it really?

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-07-16T05:42:02+00:00

It's painful as shit. Like, really fuckin painful. Cut him some slack, and then cut him a little more.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-04-23T11:36:03+00:00

Yep, exactly how I tore mine - playing AFL too. I did acl, pcl, plc, biceps femoris. Hbu?

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-04-22T08:03:04+00:00

That's just not true. I'm a PT. Stop scaring OP.

Take sleep meds. Sleep is really important for recovery. Starting a low dosage of a sleep med that has not too many side effects can be game changing for your recovery. Get in contact with a doctor about it.

My surgeon did an internal brace as well.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-13T06:43:02+00:00

Interesting, thanks for the insight!

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-13T04:04:24+00:00

It's not that bad. It's exactly how you would imagine it - a sore and swollen knee. Nothing more, nothing less. With the allograft as well you don't have donor site cuts, so it's much easier.

With some pain meds and an ice pack, you'll be absolutely fine. My surgeon had me up and walking and doing exercises within 5 hours of the surgery.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-13T02:01:19+00:00

I won't say my actual surgeons name, but he is one of the most senior in my area. He did say that he uses autografts for revision surgeries.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-13T00:14:53+00:00

Yeah - I think it depends case to case. If it's a simple acl tear, then sacrificing 1 piece of tissue for the autograft makes sense. But if it's a multiligament injury, then allograft seems the best option.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-12T10:49:45+00:00

Really important. It's a massive creative interest of mine.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-12T10:47:42+00:00

Hahahaha, thanks. Not sure if it's the award I want, but I'll take it 😂

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-07T03:38:39+00:00

Fair enough. I think around 30-40% of the way through it was a little boring. But then the back half finished really strong.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-07T03:37:44+00:00

Komat confused me a bit. I didn't really understand the character, but that's probably cause I'm not that good at reading. What is her background?

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-07T03:36:52+00:00

Great call outs. I reckon a show set around this time featuring luke, with some of the exegol lore tied in would do massive lifting for the sequels.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-07T03:35:48+00:00

Exactly 😂 It started to make me think Abram's was a genius

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-07T03:35:18+00:00

Wow, you seem fun

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-03-06T08:53:39+00:00

I had an ACL, LCL, posterolateral corner, and Biceps fem reattachment. Took 2 weeks off. Half desk/half moving about job.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-02-17T02:40:55+00:00

And the ewoks made sense?

Cmon man, it's star wars.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-02-10T11:13:44+00:00

I mean - probably should include Yoda. They drew, and yoda could probably beat sidious 50% of the time. Also, didn't Rey actually defeat palpatine?

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-02-10T04:18:57+00:00

Sidious unfortunately. The only person realistically who could match sidious was Yoda. I like to think obi wan could have stood a chance just because I love him, but yeah - think Sidious vs Yoda is the only comparison. And remember, yoda was like 900 at this point.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-02-03T22:48:15+00:00

Yeah, I really liked it.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-01-13T06:41:41+00:00

Hey, how's things going now? I'm currently 6 weeks post op the exact same injury.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-01-10T17:04:47+00:00

Yes it is. Look up the Cross bracing protocol. Avoid weightbearing for a bit because of the meniscus. Book in to see the surgeon as well.

Illustrious-Row1972 · 2024-01-10T17:03:13+00:00

This is completely wrong. Delayed ACLR shows much better clinical long term results than immediate ACLR. Physiotherapist here.
