OH MY GOD! It bothered me to watch that. I have broken some bones pretty bad so I guess it's like pain revisited. Man, praying for that kid..
my thoughts exactly!!! previous injury to those bones? undiagnosed calcium deficiency or osteoporosis? it's just weird to see 2 major bones snap like toothpicks under only the weight of the player with no other forces being applied....just plain weird!
really? my mistake then. the tib/fib compound fracture does suck...took me a year to be able to run without a limp
I can imagine. The pictures are insane. I find it funny how everyone was passing out. I forget thats supposed to be gross lol Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk 2
I don't follow basketball either but of course everyone at work this morning was talking about it. So I had to YouTube it and watch. That's definitely a pretty gruesome compound fracture. I broke my ankle when in middle school playing basketball but it was definitely nothing that severe. I just rolled my ankle over after landing on a defenders foot. Its seems very odd to me aswell that there was no other force other than his own body that caused it.
Its was such a bad injury but for some reason i cant stop waching the video or looking at pictures. This is the worst one i have seen in picture form.
That's wrong on so many levels. Thumbnails are user friendly That is just terrible, seen someone post about it on Facebook and then every forum you go on someone was talking about it. Took me awhile before I could muster up enough courage to watch it. Only did so once. Absolutely terrible.
I found another one thats worse than the one i just posted but i wont put it on here. Its zoomed in on the leg and it just bad.
EEEEWWWWWW!!! I hate obvious deformities... being compound makes it ickier. And that's coming someone who works in/for emergency departments.
Haven't seen the article or segment, but guess doctors have said it isn't a career threatening injury, simple procedure and about a 12 month recovery/rehab. Today's medical procedures are unreal, hopefully he does indeed have a full recovery and is able to resume a career of his choosing not limited by disability.
