Hi there all, hope there's someone who might help me with my "problem". I've had a comminuted fracture of both fibula and tibia (left leg) like 1cm above ankle in March this year and even though I was able to cut recovery steps to a half (I should still walk with crutches, but I am already biking/swimming/rowing for 2,5 months), my leg mobility (in the ankle) is still on +/- 85% and I have a feeling that recovery speed somehow slowed down in last month or so... Right now it is only about range of motion and bit of swelling (not much - I am aware that the circumstance of my left leg ankle will be bigger due to the implants - it is minor swelling at the forefoot in the evenings, regardless physical activity).
What I did (right after the surgery, but stopped already):
- high dosage of liposomal D3+K2 (10.000I.U. + 300mcg)
- Polyoxidonium - Russian drug developed for astronauts to stimulate grow of bone marrow
- pure badger's oil topically
- mixture of DMSO/Aloe Vera/castor oil topically
- ozone therapy (limb bag)
What I do:
- liposomal D3+K2 (5.000I.U. + 150mcg)
- MSM + liposomal C (normal dosage) - since the surgery
- photobiomodulation - red laser light + fermented curcumin - since the surgery
- 5K rowing - every day, started 2 months ago
- walking - targeting 10K steps as a min, same like before injury
- biking - +/- 200K weekly
- mechanical stimulation - with Naboso Neuroball halves - daily
Anything that I am missing? Anything to correct? BTW, when trying to extend the range of motion above current max. I do not feel any pain, rather tension...
Thanks for the hints!
