I Broke My Femur Bone
Ғылым және технология
I broke my femur bone. I had emergency surgery and was in Hospital for a week. I am now in a live-in rehab. I can lift the foot just an inch and can use a walker to go about ten feet. I get physical therapy twice a day. I can do a little more every day but its like being a baby. Hopefully I can go to my parents house in about a month. It will be July or August before the bone is healed. This summer is gone. The question is whether I can recover enough to use a boat again.
Thats just it for me, at least for now.

Hey man, just discovered your channel and that sucks man, wish you a good recovery. I broke my fibula half a year ago and it hurted more than anything, breaking a femur bone would seem magnitudes more painful. Its gonna get better and hang in there!

Sending good vibes from Sydney Australia my bro. Remember, physical therapy is extremely important. It can be the difference between a very slow painful walk, or a mostly normal walk.

@@ninehundreddollarluxuryyac5958 I know you are hurting, but I hope you will still upload videos. I like to hear your thoughts on things as well as how to do things and save money.
I broke the tibia in 3 pieces, titanium rod and screws installed, that was in January, slow healing process now walking without the walker but not steady or normal pace. For active people is a test of patience, it's going to be several months before the swelling gives way, get well good luck.

This sucks I would suggest that what you could do is make sure you get enough Vitamin k2. This is going to be controversial but give the carnivore diet a try. You don't have to quit fruit and vegetables but knock the carbs right down. In your present condition I would be looking at trying to eat 500grams of beef a day. Jesus be with you.

Breaking a femur is the most painful thing I ever experienced. This is from a person who broke forearm bones on several occasions and didn't see a doctor for those minor injuries. The ambulance guys gave me pharmaceutical fentanyl and that didn't cut the pain.
How you break it?!?!?
