If one was to do externals only on the Tibias, how long from the day of the surgery will he have to endure the horrible pain that comes with LL?
Is there a point at which the pain is the worst? When is that point?
When is the worst pain?
How long does this whole "pain phase" last?
Externals only. Current height: 166.8 cms, Desired height: 172.2 cms (lengthening 4.9 cms external only)
Hey JMorgan. All the best. So does that mean that I will be spared a lot of bad pain since I'm only doing 4.9 cms?
And, is there any time in the consolidation phase when the pain completely stops? How many months after is that (when it fully stops)
Umm bro. I don't think so and I really, really fking hope not. Hahahaha lol
So, JMorgan....which country do you plan on doing LL in?
Hey guys. I'm the original poster who asked this question.
So, is the general rule that....the less you lengthen, the less pain you will experience?
Is there a direct correlation between amount lengthened and amount of total pain?

when I accidentally set my newly-broken leg on the floor, 4th day post-osteotomy, it was surely a 9.5 for a few seconds. Had I to endure minutes of that, I would have jumped out the window...you know, a 99 on the BPM. 
I might sound silly, but I really want to know.....How many seconds? It sounded pretty scary!
And, so if I avoid lengthening above 4.7 or 4.9 cms, can I avoid the horrific pain you spoke about?
