Edit Post

I feel this diary is real.

Day 26- I guess I have lengethened around 2 cm on both legs. Would be going for another xray next week to check my progress. So far lengthening is going alright except for my right feet. I have had some excruciating pain in my right feet for 3, 4 days that restricted me from sleeping since 2 days. Its been a nightmare however the doctor has prescribed some medicines which are related to nerve pain relief. Since I started taking the medicine the pain has gone away by 70% but i still feel pain in my feet once a while.
Besides this, i have been told to reduce lengthening 1mm on right leg to 0.5mm.
Has anyone encountered similar type of pain in the feet where three fingers of the feet are paining and somewhat numb ?

Your fibula got butchered mate. look at your Xrays , probably by some inexperienced hands. so it is possible you have had some nerve damage from the surgery while inserting the pins or cutting your fibula, toe pain comes from nerve damage. please be very cautious during lengthening. Your function is very important than your height. Good luck.

In my case, I dont think the fibula has anything to do with nerve pain. I have had nerve pain in right feet whereas the fibula which is broken in not so regular manner is in the left leg. My left feet doesn't have any nerve pain whatsoever.

I am at 2.5 cm currently. The only problem i have faced so far is the nerve pain, which has reduced significantly over the past week with the help of medication and reduced lengthening in the right leg.

Besides, I feel better now and have started lengthening usual 1mm a day in both legs.

butchered fibula, a nice example . please view this Xray folks then decide if you ever want to do the surgery with the surgeon

it may or may not end up in nonunion depending on your luck.

Edit Post

Are you a doctor ? And why are you so negative about everything ?
Are you telling me i will have non union? I am 24 years of age and very healthy. I will consider myself the most unluckiest person if i ever have some complications as bad as non union.
I am updating my story every month, be patient if there is anything i will post the truth here. So far my experience has been very good with Dr sarin, he is an expert in LON external so please stop this propaganda against the doctor. When i finish my journey i will post my results from the surgery. I will be transparent i assure you that. Until then fk off.

😂 even Paley has done cuts like that before. He will be fine!
Its not a straight cut but the bone doesnt always crack straight.
I can tell you guys are new to this and have not seen many xrays.


Dr Kulesh even had my tibia cut at an angle like this to create even more surface area for new bone to grow and i ended up fine. Bone grew in perfect 😁

You guys need to stop acting like yall are doctors man 😂

I had same pains on my feets and i was very worried and scared about nerve damage bit its very normal. The important think is that u feel your feet and u can move. The feeling might be weak and this is normal also. I was feeling weak but after 2-3 week u will feel much better! Stay strong bro! 💪

My nerve pain has faded away in the past couple of days and I have started regular 1 mm lengthening on both legs. Besides, I want to ask whether lengthening 7 cm is too much for tibia ? I have seen people gone over 7.5 cm here in the dr sarin's guest house and they have recovered completely, even some of them have returned for another segment of lengthening on the femur.
My muscles and tendon are quite flexible even now (almost around 3 cm mark).
