36
OCT 21st Xray : left 80% right 85% .
cleared to walk with walker and crouches .
starting daily work outs .
NOV 17th new X-RAY
right side 100% , left side 85% , can walk with a cane now .
Its on the right side middle entry wound , where they break the bone .
there was a tiny dry blood clot on the skin after I removed my bandage and I did not replace a new one .
couple days later , I notice the area is slightly swollen when I was out getting some sun light to boost my V-D level . so I applied pressure around it , tiny yellowish discharge from the wound like a pimple .
then I test the doctor's office , they wrote me an antibiotic for 7 days , I went to grab it and took it , the wound was healed .
well , out of 14 entry wounds , 4 screws , nail insert wound , IT band wound , bone breaking wound . On each side . there is only one has a minor infection . Cant complain at all . =D
Quote from: Harry1309 on December 01, 2022, 02:27:29 PMSo it took you 8/9 months to walk with a crutch? I thought most Precice users were walking around 6 months post op with a crutch?
the precise weight bearing 150lbs , I'm 190 lbs . there are ppl who can walk around in crutch within 4 months , if you are strong enough .
In my case , I was just lying down to be safe . my legs were 80% and 85% when my doctor cleared me for walking with walker and crutch, so 6 and half months to be cleared . you can say that i was not walking at all , but my bone healed enough to support my weight after 6 and half months .

BUT , after I was cleared for walking , my right leg went from 85% to 100% real fast , in 4 weeks .
left leg is 85% right now , but I am able to walk without assist in the house , so next Xray should be 100% on both legs !!
being a long time . May 22nd , last X-ray ,I am cleared for hardware removal . so happy , lol …
started working out last OCT 15 , 7 months on and off . went from 95 KG to 79KG .
