    wish i could write a very long paragraph venting abt my trauma and disability, but all im gonna say is, i had this when i was 5 in my arm and the doctors were...... not great. i was in hospital for 3 weeks, had 10 or 11 surgeries and later taught myself to be left-handed. since i was so young i only learned details and truths over 10 years later. sometimes i get upset abt it but im so much wiser now than i ever was.

    I have CECS for 8 years now. When i was 15 i couldn't walk for 10 meters without pain. When i was 19, I got my first surgery. They made a little cut in the fascia in both shins. This cut recovered after a year. So the problems were back. The second surgery was a half year after that. They removed a bigger piece of the fascia in both shins. I did some fitness after 2 months of recovery, for like 4 months. Then I started indoor climbing. I feel my legs getting stronger and I was able to do a 3 km walk in 30 minutes, average speed was 6 km/h. That is my limit now but i believe it is possible to go further after more exercise.
    I advice to take it easy after the surgery, take small steps and let your legs and feet get used to the exercise. Especially if you have not been able to do sports for a long time, because your muscles and tendons might be weak, as in my case.

    Thank you for explaining this. I had this last March. I presented at hospital and they suspected deep vein thrombosis and arranged for me to get a scan a few days later. Before that the pain went off the charts, I literally crawled to my neighbour’s car and after 3 hours waiting at the hospital they diagnosed it just in time. I had no injury but did have an undrained baker’s cyst. Skin grafts were taken from my upper leg. I have recovered but have to wear a compression sock for life to deal with the swelling.

    I was diagnosed with compartment syndrome. Had a paper for surgery. Decided to fix it myself.
    Basically your muscle grew way faster than the slimy tube around them. Calf muscles puts a lot of preassure to that capsule. Thats why it hurts. Especially when you run. Because muscles get all pumped up and larger. Thats why you can sometimes run abit before it gets really bad. So there is a fix.
    Buy a set of calf compression sleeves. If possible and fits, size down by one.
    Not some crapoy sock looking ones. A real solid tight ones. Like compression sports ones.
    Wear them as often as possible. If you can, go for a run. Basically they are tight enough that give that slimy capsules around your calf muscles some time to recover and get bigger. Fixed my problem with less then a week. Can you imageine, nearly went for a surgery with both legs. PS! Once you recover, it wont come back.

    Came so close to losing my leg due to missing the compartment syndrome diagnosis . No fasciotomy performed on leg so we just crossed our fingers and I was lucky it went away. My arm had fasciotomy and though I still have some use of right arm, but the nerve damage and all the surgeries Heber taken its toll. Not much use

  • @aapibushra
    @aapibushra 6 років тому +6

    Great video! But just a correction, the increase intracompartmental pressure leads to venous and lymphatic obstruction which then further increases the pressure and eventually causes arterial compromise.
    Why venous first? Low pressures and the blood vessels are less muscular and thus easily compressed.
    Arterial blood vessels are more muscular and have a high pressure; thus, needing an increased amount of pressure for compromise to occur.

    I had a friend who after a prolonged period of unconsciousness in an awkward position with the circulation cut off to his leg, suffered an infarction in one of his thigh muscles, a portion of which was removed after he almost died from rhabdo. I actually had a similar thing happen, but I was fortunate enough only to have moderate to severe pain and a limp for a couple of weeks as the circulation hadn't been cut off long enough to kill the muscle. I had remained unconscious in an upright, cross-legged position for some amount of time, I'm not sure how long. But when I came to, my leg was almost completely paralyzed and as the sensation and mobility returned over the course of the next hour, it was replaced with terrible pain.

    • @kt5229
      @kt5229 6 років тому

      Nothing\ I developed it from a similar cause (fell unconscious and wasn't found for about 24 hours) but I had extreme damage in both calfs. My left was amputated just below the knee, and I had fasciotomies on my right, left open for 3 weeks with a vac thing and then closed up with skin grafts. I lost the ability to move my ankle, toes etc and required a triple arthrodesis to stop my foot twisting, and have had chronic pain ever since. That was about 6 years ago. I can't stand on my remaining foot for more than a few seconds, so I am totally wheelchair bound. Oh and I too nearly died from rhabdo, the surgeon wasn't sure if I'd make it off the table, when I did he thought I'd be on dialysis for the rest of my life. I was on dialysis for about a week, my body is strong and I have no lasting effects on my kidneys.

      Pretty long since you posted, but I had compartment syndrome in my right leg. 3 surgeries in one week trying to save it. That was June 2017. It took about 6 months to walk normally, and i can even run for about 1 minute now, though my endurance won't get any better. I lost 60-80% of my lower right leg, and several nerves never recovered. I have chronic pain, but was lucky. Sounds like you got it worse.

    I had severe trauma , 3-4 over a 2 yr period,and a life of severe abuse. However I was a workaholic,84 hours a week. I got a virus from my husband spraying my vegetable garden and I went out with girls ,I’m always the DD . I had one glass of homemade white wine ,and everyone threw up but me . I went home ,and awoke to use WRoom , and was 100% paralyzed for 5 days . I couldn’t move at all and 5 days later ,it just left.
    I began to swell bad,and then one day I looked like a burn victim,my edema was severe.
    I feel like a porcupine,any kind of stimulation at all. Coughing,sneezing,vomiting,sneezing,goosebumps,crying,orgasm, hug, blood pressure cuff , it’s like the nerve endings extend far ,and it feels like their on fire burning,with the tips of nerves feels like their being sliced with razor blades .
    My sed rate was so high , and I’d had 85 surgeries, from 8 car accidents,rape victim,and malnutrition as a child .
    Toxemia when pregnant, 4 days induced,nothing for pain , emergency surgery,placenta Snow White . I went into convulsions and 106 temperature because drs let me go to long in more labor,after they broke my water,so infection set in ,so my 10 pound baby was infected as was I . The preemie ward incubator barely fit ,IVS everywhere,on top on a severe 32 day bowel obstruction . I was full of stitches. In hospital for7 wks.
    CFS is hell. ReMag Magnesium Chloride 99,99 % was the only thing that helped with severe fatigue, I’m talking 4 days sleeping straight.
    I was exhausted all the time ,severe cramping in muscles and deep bone pain . My blood pressure went sky high in pain,normal whenever it was below a 4 .

      They, doctors, are not going to give you any medical advice. If you're not a patient there is too much liability. Besides, they don't have enough of your medical history to give an informed decision. It would be an educated guess, at best, and there ,in turn, lies the risk of someone suing. Medical students probably have just as many classes about risk, obligations, and liability in medical school as they do science-based classes. I would think if any answer was provoked it would have to be a broad and hypothetical situation. For example: Could (not would) a fasciotomy be a possible treatment for a patient with chronic type compartment syndrome suffering from shin splints? Or what are some treatments for patients with chronic type compartment syndrome suffering from shin splints where conventional treatments have failed? See the difference? Best of luck to you.
