Update?
Back road? Car or motorcycle accident? I've been fortunate (knock on wood). One concussion, stitches, but that's about it for trauma. Some cuts and burns but nothing worth a visit to an emergency room.
Wishing you a 100% full and speedy recovery, saiyajinali! Emphasis on FULL! Take your time with the recuperation.

Back Road Curt... The thing is I thought I was ok beacuse I didnt see any bruising when I went down & the impact of the fall & the weight of the bike on the leg. It was three days later when the damage was done. My foot basically went to sleep..
So now when I ride, yes I still ride , I wear top of the line boots EVERYTIME I go out. On dirt & on street.. It alaways amazes me when I see guys riding in flip flops.

A man whose posts I read in a newsgroup died in a freak bicycle accident. No helmet.
I ride motorcycle and, yes, though I've ridden without a helmet, I normally wear the proper gear - jacket, boots, gloves, and lid. And I do cringe when I see people on sportbikes wearing flip flops and gym shorts.
Again, wishing you a full and speedy recover!Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Join Rx Muscle on Facebook!

I actually just took my compression bandage I had been wearing for two weeks off Wednesday night. A few weeks ago my dr advised me to use one because the inner implant pocket opened up & created a small drain.. It was my body's way of getting rid of internal bleeding & excess fluid from the healing process..
Since my lower right leg is 35% scar tissue, he had to cut beneath the surface of the skin which was scar, that is not strong skin, & into the tissue to make a thicker pocket to hold the implant.
If he didnt do this, my leg would have rejected the implant & it would have cut through, which is what happened last time I had the surgery...
The down side is that it has taken me much longer to heal.. & I had ALLOT of internal bleeding while that pocket was healing... This sounds gross, but I could literally squeeze my leg & blood & would fluid would come out of the drain.
I went through so many dressings until it was ridiculous..
But I am finally over this & I will resume training next week..
I am going to put up before & after photos today or tomorrow so you all can see the difference.

Good luck in your recovery and for the love of God pull that stove out and clean behind there. You have some kitty toys and half a bag of macaroni under there.

I most certainly will do so this week.
I have been meaning to do it, but you have to understand that I am a man & I have ashy legs & by the time I get to the gym where I want to take pics with good light, I realize I dont have any lotion LOL..
No seriously,
I am going to put some before pics that i sent to my surgeon that he used to decide what size to go with with the recent ones.
Just letting you know guys know upfront though, even though I have balance in both legs I have some serious discoloration & scarring from past trauma & such. I probably have had over 10 surgeries on this leg.. So imagine if it was scarred & discolored before, these scars are stretched with the implants placed inside. Good thing for protan on gameday lol..
Funny thing is that I wear long shorts in the gym now where my lower legs are exposed, & people that have trained @ my gym for years ask me, "What happened to your leg?"
I always laugh & tell them, "You should have seen it before."
You see, I have not been seen in public wearing shorts since 2002 because the muscle atrophy looked VERY ODD. That means that I havent been to pools & beaches either..
The only time anyone has seen my right leg is in contest photos...
