Had oral surgery a year ago for a tooth that grew in my sinus cavity and have another inertia summer for the same tooth that has a thin root and a receding gum line. It's really not that bad

I think I broke my ankle today, have my leg in a cast now but have to go back to the hospital in a week for more x-rays to see if it is fractured or not..
Anyone on here know what kind of surgery/recovery time i'm looking at here? Docs didn't really tell me much to be honest.

I had Acl surgery in september, there is nothing to worry about. Its boring for the first little while but just focus on physio and working out later in order to get back to being able to ski and shit

Well I just had ACL surgery on my right knee in June. Then a week ago I had ACL surgery on my left. Double knee brace all the way! Dont be too scared tho dude. Just make sure you work really hard to get strong again!

oral surgery is cake.

REal surgery sucks...a lot. I had a bunch of stuff fixed in my shoulder, and it was the most painful 3 days of my life. none of the pain killers really helped, only taking small hits from my pipe kept the pain at bay. It took 3 months before i could even begin rehab in earnest.

though major shoulder surgery is supposed to be the most painful surgery.


ACL is gonna suck because, while not having an arm is bad, not having a leg is truly debilitating



but, it is worth it in the end, as the joint will be stronger for it.
