Hey Victor, I just want to say you are an amazing human being inside out. You are a role model for all and keep doing what you do and never change, you are awesome and I for one is very grateful for someone like you. Ready to be at anyone's service, God bless you.
Thank God for your successful surgery. Am on consolidation phase for unilateral leg lengthening. I distracted 5cm. Am on the third month postdistraction. How many cm can I achieve in month? In one of your videos, you advised on a supplement called cissus quadranluraris ,I got the one of 1800mg per serving for 66 days, do discontinue after the 66days, or continue?. Am experiencing calf muscle weakness, what do I do?. Sorry for the lengthy write-up. Thank you for your videos.
Ah you took my advice! Yes cissus quadrangularis is amazing stuff. Even if studies are lacking in it's effectiveness I personally noticed the effects. In fact I'm using it right now to regulate inflammation without side-effects and amplify fibrotic callus in the white tissue (tendon/fascia and yes of course bone). Here's a study I found recently for bones: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4784127/. For the calf weakness definitely check with surgeon to ensure no early signs of drop foot are apparent or compartment syndrome. I would say 5cm on a tibia is great place to stop. And Nigeria has LL surgeons - who and where?
Thank you for your response It's on my femur not tibia. Yes, competent doctors are here in Nigeria. I had the surgery at the National orthopaedic hospital Dala, Kano state. I will check the link you sent on bones.
Thank you for the video! Could you please an overview or comparison of European limb lenghtenting clinics (doctors)? I wonder what are the differences in price and procedures compared to the US. Cheers!
Someone else asked for the same thing. It's a big task as so many LL clinics and prices fluctuate, but sounds like it's a demanded topic so I'll put it in the pipeline
Hey Vic, could you please get that lovely chap Bob back on in a few months time to ask about how he is? I heard he's quite old which is interesting! Would be great to know how age affects the length he gets and how it feels
Hello Victor. I love your videos. What exercises would you recommend for a faster bone regeneration? I am waiting on my bone regeneration after 5cm tibia lengthening. I am currently walking 4km a day on a treadmill. Is it sufficient?
Great question. So first off tibias take longer than other long bones to heal due to being surrounded by less vascular tissue (muscle). I will discuss the top ways to heal a bone but seems you're doing the weight bearing aspect. How's sleep and diet? But have you tried a LIPUS or electric bone stimulator? I used one for my tibia way back. In fact, I tried to collab with a company but LL is considered off-label use but still works!
@@Cyborg4Life thank you for your response!! Sleep and diet is fine, but a few months ago I found out that I had a critical D3 and iron deficiency, most of women are anemic and as you know both of those things are a huge no, no. So, that contributed to the time length of the process as well. But all is well, just keep on learning and working on a process.
i have a question please when we lengthen the bones does the muscles grow also longer or does is just stretch but keep the same length ? thank you for all the informations i suggest making a video about fear because im so scared of the surgery and the side effects
I run every other day and I lift 4 times a week. I’m worried if I get limb lengthing surgery I won’t be able to continue these activities, how likely is it that I’d have to give up running if I lengthend my femur by 9cm I’m 5’9
Im sick of looking like im still in high school because of my height. Im 26... I mean i got terrible posture which i know can affect height. i am trying to get help for that, was thinking trying yoga.. heard you can gain 2 inches in height, or more, just fixing bad posture. If i can gain more than 2 inches in height from fixing the posture id be so happy but i feel like most people only gain 2 in. Im 5'8 right now with bad posture idk maybe i can be 5'10 after fixing it. Im Just trying to think about what my maximum height could be before and after getting the surgery. also another thing, i remember you saying ll surgeons can fix knock knee deformities, also something i have. I wonder just fixing the knock knee deformity alone how much height can i gain from that
Yeah if you have a large degree of knock knees then you could gain some height but the surgeon would have to determine exactly how much. Wish you luck with the posture work!
I love this episode - incredibly well laid out and awesome graphics. Phases 1-4 make total sense; very straight to the point. 100% GOLD.

@@Cyborg4Life thank you for your answer! I would really appreciate a similar video, as there is not much info on this topic out there.

Heck yeah I'll have him back. He's awesome and looking forward to a progress update with him when he's done distracting

thank you for all the informations
i suggest making a video about fear because im so scared of the surgery and the side effects
Sure so yeah you will stretch and grow muscle when you do lengthening. And here's a video to help explain: ua-cam.com/video/7znUsArk8gg/v-deo.html

5’9 is fine get over this dysphoria and put that money into a better use
You can do those activities again but if you're an elite level sprinter or sports athlete, LL isn't recommended until after you retire

Consult with a doctor man. You can only answer these questions in a consultation.
Yeah if you have a large degree of knock knees then you could gain some height but the surgeon would have to determine exactly how much. Wish you luck with the posture work!
Good video Victor as always! Also, please check your messages from me whenever possible.
