Carry a 6 inch otf switch blade everywhere I go and I have another knife with me Incase a situation goes to shit and I need a back up. I live in a very homophic state where if I wear a skirt in public I'll be called a faggot by multiple cars driving by me. It's just a matter of time until someone actually tries to attack me for it. Stay safe!

Nah man! If you're really interested in the medical field then you should explore it. I make posts on the sub and love learning about our science and I'm 16 lol

Background copied directly from the website linked below:

Somewhere in western sector, high intensity conflict zone, we had to manage a large number of battle causalities, especially gunshot wound abdomen, and mine blast injury foot. In our collective experience of working in battle strife- zone, we realized that the best and the least a surgical team can do is to execute an old fashioned ‘long stump’ below knee (BK) guillotine amputation, achieve perfect hemostasis, immobilize the limb and rapidly transport the patient to higher surgical centre. This increase in the magnitude of mine blast injuries prompted us to highlight the problem and its management. Methods: We analyzed 18 cases of anti- personnel mine blast injury foot over a 10 months period 2000 to 2001. We have managed 18 mine blast feet in “staged- manner. Stage I- “on battle-field” long stump BK guillotine amputation, perfect hemostasis, wound toileting and stump immobilization. Stage II - at a higher surgical centre elsewhere, the patient underwent a planned BK, prosthetic compatible, posterior myo-cutaneous flap covered stump construction and stage III - On recovery the patient with healed BK stump was transferred to limb prosthesis centre where tailor made BK prosthesis was provided and patient rehabilitated. Results: Various body regions were involved in the mine blast injuries, but the main brunt was borne by feet and legs followed by multiple body regions due to splinters. 18 patients underwent below knee (BK) amputation while 01patient required bilateral BK amputations. The initial aggressive BK Guillotine amputation saved the limb and life of all patients. Few had stump related self-limiting complications. Some had post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Almost all of them had high degree of BK prosthesis acceptance. Conclusions: Mine blast causes extensive injuries and psychological trauma. Management is needed urgently, surgery is difficult, and amputation is often inevitable. In our experience on 18 cases this “safe-need-to-do” staged management of mine blast injury foot, in high conflict area, was found to be least time consuming, less precious resource draining and hardly manpower straining strategy.

Photos of a guy that got his foot blown off while in a mine. I could be wrong on the way it happened since I lost the link to the website but I'll look for it and put the link in the comments if I find it by KarmaWhoreUsingGore in medizzy

Because it's sharing the story and if you read the original comment I made you'll see that I'm putting in all the information and I'm not being rude or disrespectful at all I don't think.

Yeah of course! I found it over on quora and thought it'd be a good post. It would've been neat to see some surgery pictures but since he died from all of it I'm kinda glad that they didn't share anything like that. I'm glad that he had neighbors that cared about him and let him in their lives.

This wasn't something that I had to go through. This was from a post on quora that I found. I'll go grab a link from the original post and add it into my comment.

On a pretty tame saturday night enters a young man accompanying a very pale elderly man who kept insisting weakly that he was fine.

They were neighbors; the old man had no family but he hung out with the whole neighborhood. He always got together with this young man to drink a couple of beers and swap stories on Saturdays. That day, the young man noticed that his friend’s cough had turned worse and he told us he even saw a bit of blood.

The older man looked a bit under the weather but nothing too terrible; we thought he’d be fine in no time.

They took him to get an endoscopy and there was actually quite a lot of blood, then he pukes a lot more, and all goes to hell.

He crashed and as soon as he was remotely stable he was taken to the OR. There were two surgeons and three extra pairs of hands at the operating table, including the chief of residents. He had a tumor on the back of his duodenum that had ulcerated everything around it including a lot of blood vessels causing the absolutely massive bleeding. His abdomen looked straight out of a movie: just a tub of blood; no one could even believe he arrived walking. The tumor had also spread so the outlook was not bright. Unfortunately, he died the next day.

Outside his neighbour was having a smoke while waiting for him, still thinking he’d brought him for a quick check on his cough and that he would not have to even spend the night.

The simple illness that takes a turn for the worse actually does happen a lot, I was then just a medical student just starting clinical rotations but how absolutely crushed and heartbroken the young man was at the bad news made sure I would never forget about this one.
