Injuries

Anyone who has done their ACL ever have to have the screw removed.

I saw a phsyio this morning about it as the screw seems to have protruded a good bit in the last year and they recommended me arranging a consult with the surgeon and advised me it would most likely be removed.

It’s not that painful at the minute but it does cause intermittent bouts of soreness, particularly after I’ve been active eg - running or playing matches?

Will having this removed have any impact on the cruciate or knee in general?

How’s the foot, Brimmer? Those shear grabs are tough hoors.

Did you not think to ask these questions to the consultant rather than to rely on the musings of the internet…

It’s still very tender. Don’t know if it actually broken, but I’m still taking it very easy.

I’m trying to think if there was a screw involved when mine was done or was the ligament stitched back together?

So you have a screw loose then, pal?

LOL loud.

Banter.

Lolz.

Nembo_Kid · November 7, 2016, 2:02pm

No I’m going to ask on the internet and then sit in the meeting with consultant like a mute.

well whatever you so don’t go back to the clowns who did the job

I envy the consultant

Does anyone know anything about Achilles tendonitis?
I think herself has it after Saturdays parkrun.

Juhniallio · November 7, 2016, 4:10pm

Yes. Tell her riding a few strangers off the internet will sort it.

flattythehurdler · November 7, 2016, 4:46pm

Will do. Anyone in mind?
Can she use me to get her eye in first?

Juhniallio · November 7, 2016, 5:27pm

@ChocolateMice and @Tassotti are riddled so not them. Maybe @glasagusban or @Nembo_Kid? That way she’ll think you’re an absolute legend in the sack.

Nah. She needs a Newby. Give @mikehunt a bell. That way she can be the boss

As established already, I’m a long standing mohoganist.

glasagusban · November 7, 2016, 5:33pm

Princess doing your tan for you now too?

anon61956325 · November 7, 2016, 8:17pm

I’m naturally bronze, bud.

Are you a darkie?

anon61956325 · November 7, 2016, 8:56pm

I’m Irish. Real Irish. Not a pale skinned Celtic or Viking/Norse invader. But Fir Bolg dark, the original Irish.
