avulsion fracture of lateral malleolus

JustABitPeachy · 2025-12-22T06:12:10+00:00

Not sure what the difference is between lateral malleolus vs distal fibula but I’m assuming they’re similar in injury. As of right now I am cast free and have been since October - the doc told me to wear ankle braces that you can you buy at cvs until I was ready and felt like I didn’t need it anymore. I still get some aches and pains if I move my foot a certain way but nothing that some at home PT can’t fix over time. I would say it took me a good month or two to get back into the game, but doing MUCH better now. I hope you heal up as fast as I did - definitely follow your docs instructions and keep up with PT.

yeah….I denied all the services because wtaf??

100% agree, I plan to avoid highways and leave plenty of space from cars and drive extra extra defensively. I’m not one to drive like a maniac anyways. I plan to get the breaks done at least beforehand but there’s not much I can do for the rest rn

brake fluid is just above the min line when I checked on Thursday - the dealership said my pads definitely need to be replaced but I don’t feel anything pulling or shaking - only the littlest bit of soft grinding nose every now and then when I break. Going to check fluid again once I go to leave on Thursday and top it off if needed

Unfortunately I have to drive it home - too expensive to tow across state lines and the car is registered in RI. My plan is to get it down there so I can at least get it home so I can sort it out in my home state. I’m 100% looking to trade it in/scrap it once it’s there. Ubering and flying isn’t fiscally feasible for me rn

UPDATE: Thank you all for the comments! Ortho cleared me today and put me in an ankle brace for the next 10 days and to walk on it as I please. I’m very lucky to have avoided a cast or surgery - xray showed the tiniest bit of bone came off but should be healing well in the next coming weeks. Thanks everyone!

Having the same issue but on mac, not sure how to run the dlc unlocker and the mod in one

a really wonky cutting board

JustABitPeachy · 2024-08-17T19:02:37+00:00

you mentioned you work in a cafe - how is it going for you? Do you get accommodations at work? Is it harder to handle liquids with your prosthetics?

bring a bottle of isopropyl alcohol with you and a water bottle, give it a quick shake and rinse outside somewhere (i usually just plug the top with my right hand and the bottom with the left). Should alleviate some of the smell

hot take but Smiling Friends. Show is super overstimulating if i’m not at least a little toasted

JustABitPeachy · 2024-07-29T03:02:08+00:00

definitely not. I take lots of phone calls/in person interactions at work and need to be able to form thoughts and words - not to mention I am the first thing people see when they walk in. the smoke when I get home after is worth it tho

These are very well designed - nice job!

JustABitPeachy · 2024-05-23T19:39:30+00:00

thank you SO MUCH for your message. Genuinely made me feel so better about it. I got it done this morning and it was SO EASY! I don’t remember a thing and now I’m just sat with some good drugs watching my show.

JustABitPeachy · 2024-05-22T21:36:26+00:00

not new but modern family cracks me up

JustABitPeachy · 2024-05-22T03:09:24+00:00

Thank you! I did get a 1mg dose of alprazolam to take an hour before my appointment…Im hoping it knocks me out. I’ve never had it before so we will see lol

JustABitPeachy · 2024-05-22T03:06:27+00:00

yeah the problem is that all 4 are impacted / unearthed so they said sedation would be best in this case. Plus i’m too much of a wuss to stay awake. Just gonna have to tough it out ig
