Well, it sounds like a magic spell of some sort, doesn’t it? In truth, they’re just medical terms I found while researching physiotherapy. They mean pain, heat, redness, and collection of fluid.
Being in a splint sucks. Seriously, my leg’s been straight for so long that I think my quads have started to atrophy. No, really, my thigh looks smaller.
Damn it. I’m not looking forward to having to go through months of physio. It scares me frankly. I know it’s only been two weeks since my accident, but I’m freaked out by how not normal the knee looks.
Ugh. With the splint, at first I had to wear shorts. The swollen leg and splint were just too big to get through a proper pant leg. I ended up wearing those pants where you can unzip the bottom half. Now I can fit it in pants, but I still walk pretty much like Frankenstein’s monster. It’s expected though.
This Monday I’ll be going to the doctor to see what he says about it all. I can’t wait.
