Hurt myself skiing.

Both my skis came off in midair and I fell on my back. It has been a week now and my transverse process hurts. If I lift my leg up a sharp pain travels from my facet joint/transverse process all the way down my leg. Feels like a damaged nerve. I don't have medical insurance and refuse to get Obama care.

From what I'm reading, Obamacare requires one to pay health tax, like we do, but lowers price and insurance rates. I'm not seeing a negative to getting Obamacare.

I'm really confused why this thread exists. Are you trying to ask for help? Are you just telling ns because you think ns cares? Are you trying to show ns how badass you are for not having health insurance and refusing to get obamacare? If you are asking for help, are you also subtly letting ns know you're a dumbass because you for some unfathomable reason think that some kid on ns will be able to diagnose what's wrong with you simply from you telling ns what's wrong?

please clarify.

I tried but the website wasn't working and in the long run it will cost me more. Does a damaged nerve ever get better. If I can't ski this winter i'm committing suicide.

fair enough, good to know. But, like I said, like the vast, vast majority of ns i'm not a doctor, and even if i was i couldn't figure out what's wrong with you simply by reading words on a screen.

good luck though.

Only nerve damage I have gotten was that I lost all feeling in an area. Fell on my left side of my hip skateboarding pretty fast and lost all feeling in the left side of my hip for a solid 3 months. Fell on my back off a bolder while snowboarding(#stabme) about two weeks ago and I can tell that I'm not going to have feeling in my back for a while.

I'm thinking you pinched your nerve somehow and the only way to get rid of that for free is to do very mild stretching and ibuprofen/weed. Not sure what kind of stretching though and try putting heat on it.

I bruised the bone as well. If I touch the transverse process it hurts the bone and my lower leg. It could have something to do with my ligaments.

i slept awkwardly one night and couldn't move my neck for the next few days without my nerve fully flaring up and it was some of the worst pain i have ever experienced. you probably just landed on the muscle wrong and it inflamed the nerve it should slowly get better just don't keep trying to bend your leg forward otherwise you will keep it inflamed.

You don't understand shoulder and neck pain until you have had parsonage-turner syndrome.
