Quote from: ShortandStubborn on September 12, 2015, 12:12:46 PMWhat about permanent knee pain with internal in tibia?
This comes from splitting the tendon at the patella from what I can remember. It can be a long term issue. But I don't have any further knowledge to comment further.
Sorry

I will tell him that I have had it before. However I intend to go with internal methods on both segments and so will most likely not even see my subjectivity tested as the chances with internals are as low as 0.001%.
My surgon told me that deep bone infections with external methods are next to impossible. Wouldn't internals have a higher risk for that since you actually have to shove a piece of metal into the bone canals themselves? Most docs have told me a ridk with LON is bone infection and they never mention that with exfix only.
The deep bone infection that I had was caused by a surface wound whilst playing football. I am not a medical man and so I don't know how things like this happen. But I am very sure that when it comes to these types of infection. They are very painful and on top of the lengthening process, its something you really don't want.

thank you kilokahn. you are correct. actually just in case anyone was curious relatively speaking the procedure with the greatest possibility of bone infection is LATN. and that is only because its an internal method combined with external after the externals have been in place.
ok razorfin, let me clarify some things. 1 I am stern but never angry. I just tell you the facts.
I have spoken to many words for you to follow my most important points. so I will speak as little words as possible to get you to understand.

1) deep bone infection is very painful.
2) externals are next to impossible to get internal infections.
3) internals (devices) have small but higher statistics for deep bone infection. especially LATN. ie. LATN>internals>external (external actually being the safest category)
4) infection is incredibly rare and no one cares how painful it is because its next to impossible to get so there is no point in worrying your pretty little mind over it like it is a major issue.

Just a question, how old are you?
read masterhy s diary in old forum. he Had some infection at the beginning. his bone never healed. he Had many surgeries and not rec0vered. people say he has died.
