Title: Crash injury updates...
Post by: Daniely on April 08, 2005, 01:44:18 PM
Well, i just got back from the docs. Turns out the lumpy in my shoulder, yea thats my collar bone. My doctor says, that since i tore some ligaments and stuff holding my collar bone down, it no longer is being held down, lol. So for the rest of my life my collar bone is going to be sticking up, waving at everyone (ok its not that noticable unless you run your hand over my shoulder). As far as my knee and neck (stiffness) everything is ok with that. I have about another week or so before I can loose the sling, and about 3 to 4 weeks from today till my ROM is back to normal. Unfortunately, he said I may have trouble when i get really old with arthritis and whatnot in that arm. Hopefully by then they will have made like cybornetic replacements :) :) lol, wishfull thinking. Anyways, i got a clean bill of health and all is well (minus the pointy bone :) ). So im all set. Figure in about a month, maybe a tiny bit more, I can be good to ride pain free :) i cannot wait :) :) :).

This kinda sounds like GS Anne's separation injury. She had a clavicle serparation that required some "wrenching" to fix. Check out her xrays half way down this page.
