yeah definitely a bit painful lol. I have a pretty high tolerance for pain, but Im definitely feeling this. Especially since Ive had to walk and put a bit of weight on it because the clinic I went to today didnt give me any crutches, just some sticky patches to put over it and some ibuprofen, with directions to go to a bigger hospital tomorrow

theyre alright, but honestly way more of a pain to maintain than other flooring types. I dont mind my apartment but in the future I dont think Ill willingly pick tatami mat flooring.

Depending on the nature of the break, immobilizing it may do more harm than good. I broke my elbow a couple months back (non-displaced radial head fracture), and I just had to wear a sling for a couple weeks and take it easy from there (plus physio). There was a time when that would have needed a full-arm cast that held it at 90 degrees and kept my wrist from turning, but immobilizing the joint like that can cause it to seize up and become too stiff to move, which hurts recovery. So long as the bones aren't in immediate danger of shifting and undoing whatever healing has happened (whether because it's a stable non-displaced fracture or because it's been fixed surgically), you really just need to support it well enough to protect it from forces that might re-break it.

Now, he definitely shouldn't be weight-bearing right now and I'm appalled that the hospital didn't give him crutches or direct him to get some.

I dont know either. Im going to the big hospital in 15 minutes though, so hopefully I find out then. Both my ex and my mother suggested I may need surgery and I dont need that kind of energy rn so theyre canceled.

yeah, Im really annoyed I didnt get any crutches. Like I feel like its the number one thing that could improve my quality of life right now. Hopefully I get some today. If I dont, I guess Ill have to figure out where to buy crutches Im sure they cant be too hard to find.

they said surgery might be necessary because of the location, but theyre giving me a cast for 4-6 weeks first and hopefully I wont need surgery

I am going to wish you good luck; try the classifieds and kiji, you may have to go to a medical supply store, the hospital may have one or may be able to recommend one: you have to make sure they are appropriate for your size, too small or too big will cause other damage but you should be able to adjust most adult sized ones for your frame.

Last I hear there was a bit of a shortage and that was before the supply chain issues made it even more difficult to get things.

Thank you for the suggestions! The orthopedic surgeon I went to today rented me out a pair of crutches and sized them to me, so Im good there at least. Just going to be annoying navigating all the stairs at work and to my apartment now lol

its okay, I need to find something to laugh about in this situation, because its miserable otherwise.

im not going to go into the full story here, but I am now in trouble with my job basically for breaking my ankle (totes did this on purpose to inconvenience them, ya know) and now I probably wont be able to take my driving test even though the doctor approved me to drive because the driving center says no casts or crutches allowed, period. Which means come the end of next month, when my international permit expires, I cant legally drive in this country without going to a $3000 driving school, which will be a big inconvenience.

this situation went from lol to i wish it would have just killed me
