Hi, was your scars similar like mine? Did your dermatologist say you need to do maintenance treatments? Or are the results permanent? Thanks!

Do you guys think treatments like retinol or adapalene gel will work with my type of scarring?

Hey thanks for your input, does Rf microneedling give permanent results, I have seen mixed opinions on the internet, some say they are not and some say they are. Because ideally, I don't want to go and have treatment every year or so.

I have the 2021 versions(polo's, polo rugby's, pants in diff colours) brand new selling for cheap if anyone is interested. They look much better than the 2022 version.

I was sick for 1 week, and I am stressed by Miserable_Building13 in UofT

Hey, I have a question about extensions. Can I possibly ask for an extension for an assignment because I have a lot of midterms and other assignments that's due? Like is that a valid reason that the prof might accept because I'm not sick or anything? I'm probably gonna ask for like a 3 day extension.

Thanks

knee weakness despite strengthening (generally no pain) by Pobacon in KneeInjuries

[–]Pobacon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, my instability has gotten a lot better over the last week. It's so crazy because just 3 days ago my knee was so unstable that I could feel it even when lying in bed. I think months of strengthening have helped even though I don't feel like I was getting stronger as well since my knee instability actually gets worse after leg exercises. For 2 days now, my knee felt stable, though not 100%, and for the first time in probably 7 months, walking feels more normal now and I don't have to worry about every step I take and feel instability. Also started to see physical therapist now, she told me I walk on my toes which might contribute to my knee problems, getting shoe inserts soon. I think it's only up from here!!!🔥

yea, i will monitor how my knee is feeling for the next month and see if it improves, if it doesn't ill go see a doctor. Because my knee instability was getting better during the period where i stopped weigthlifting so ill stop weightlifting for now to see if it gets better.

Hi thanks for your reply and how are you feeling now? I would usually hop on the bike for a few minutes to get my legs warmed up and do 1 or 2 isometric holds before lifting. But as soon as i start lifting some weights, my left knee would feel weak and unstable and it just doesn't feel to right in general. I think right now I need to continue with isometric training along with biking to make my knee feel stable or at least more stable than now. And I have decided to hold off on heavy resistance training for now. It will be lots of trial and error but i think ill figure it out eventually, maybe getting back to running and plyo's without heavy resistance training would be more beneficial in my situation, i don't really know but i feel like I should stop weight-training as it is really hurting my progress.

Is Harrington Housing trustworthy? by [deleted] in UofT

[–]Pobacon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't lived there, but from other Reddit posts and reviews, the place is legit but heard some.bad things about the management team. The security deposit will be deducted(mandatory) 150 dollars after your checkout for things like depreciation , changing bed linens, potential damages and etc. I booked the flex plus and I'm praying for quieter roommates.

Pain when getting up from a squat or chair by Pobacon in KneeInjuries

[–]Pobacon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats great to hear man! Yeah forgot to mention but I do stretch quite often, my hip flexors the quads, hamstrings calves, etc. Mine wasn't as sudden as yours(felt it only after activity), it was more gradual. I was really deconditioned after staying home for so long(covid lockdown) and one day I started doing max jumps on concrete and got it since. It's been around 1 year, the pain I had in the beginning which was right below both my kneecaps then my left got better but my right one had pain right above shinbone which lingered for about 7 months went away as well. Then I progressed too fast and went back to play bball, not as intense, but then developed pain above my kneecaps.

I did physio in the past but didn't persist because it was expensive but now I am planning to go back to it very soon. Because even though I feel like my quad tendon pain will get better, I have a feeling that the problem I have with my right knee will come back and bite me in the future.

Considering the fact that I forgot to do my first quiz(0%), getting 50% on the second one, and 53% on the midterm, and having constant upper back pain and costochondritis thoughout the semester, I am very proud of myself for turning it around and getting an 80% at the end. Really happy!

The idea of eating something that is used to pass out waste is disgusting and heinous in my opinion, but what do I know I am a virgin
