Better than having your kneecaps in your teeth.
Don’t fucking kick your legs up in a car what the fuck you’re in a high speed vehicle that can crash at any moment resting legs near an air bag???
How am I going to look cool and be comfortable though.
well I rest on the door handle and my foot over the air bag so my knee will miss my teeth
It can literally Kill you! Even a lower speed accident. I took care of a patient who’s leg was shattered and it cut her femoral artery into a couple pieces.
DEAD! Just by hanging her bare feet outside the front passenger window across the edge of the dashboard. Air bag deployed. The END.
Of the many broken bones I’ve had, a snapped femur is one. The damage it did means I’m never walking without a limp or running at nearly the pace I could. All it did was compound above the knee. This is permanent massive life changing damage. That bone absolutely destroys all the critical muscle groups, blood vessels, and massive nervous system that flows down to your lower half.
Oh look. They pooped their femur!
People really need to stop putting weird things up their asses.
Just dab it with some bacitracin, take some ibuprofen, and get some sleep. You’ll be fiiiiiine.
Lol its like you were in the ER with me. After getting a $5 sling for $130 and 50¢ Tylenol for $50 they sent me home and referred me to a doctor on the far side of town who wasn’t in my network. Its almost been a month since I broke my collarbone, only abt a month of sling time left! And $617 dollars in med debt later
I didn’t know my GP was on Lemmy
Gently apply warm water on the affected area
Best I can do is piss myself.
But gently
After that kind of injury it’s entirely possible you actually couldn’t. Any larger damage near the bladder area and you might lose the control of those muscles, thus either being unable to piss or hold it in
So they’ve broken their pelvis straight through about half way up, popped their right femur out of the socket, and split the left femur straight through near the top… yeah… that sucks
Holy crap, I didn’t even notice the broken pelvis and left femur break, gah!
They didn’t break their pelvis, it’s a child. The bones in their pelvis aren’t fused yet. Not that it makes much of a difference damage wise

Right? People kinda willfully forget anywhere that isn’t a major metropolutan area has a possibility of being the redneck type of rural, and that’s not even exclusive to the USA.
Not to be all prudish or anything, but this made my stomach turn seeing it. IDK if tagging it would help but at least I would have been mentally braced for it.
I don’t think prudish is the word you wanted, but squeamish.

God I thought I was nuts when i saw a face too

Those who know
Hell, I bruised my hip bone once at a martial arts seminar. The next-level pain I felt from just that make me worry for when I’m dumber/older and need a replacement.
Looking at trending, it’s 50-50 I’ll be fine into my 80s or be 4-joints-bionic by 70. Nothing in-between.
No fixing stupid. Seeing this every now and then.
That’ll buff out.
Oof… I shattered my pelvis into 13 pieces in a bad car accident in 2015. They thought i might not walk again, but I thank God im walking just fine. I also had major head trauma and had totally lost my short term memory at first. Its has fully come back, I think, mostly. I couldn’t even hold a conversation at first.
If you look at their sacrum you can see their soul crying (it kinda looks like a face in agony)
