I took these photos on Saturday, today is Monday, 2 weeks since The Fall.
Above is front of right leg,
below is back of right leg, could not manage the bottom back, but it matches the front
Don't fret, I am better and cleared to walk the dog and do all my excercises in pool and out of pool.
Color me thankful, there is nothing broken.
I have walked 3 times with Beau and everything is working fine
the bruises all appeared on the 10th day, I went back to the doctor.
she said a blood vessel broke inside the knee and this is all the blood draining south and with exercise will go away.
Above is ankle of left leg, below is knee of left leg
this is after two weeks, I spared you the blood gore, if this were TV I would have shown it to you.
You can see the below arm, so use your imagination.
During the 'shooting' of these photos I learned something new,
coming soon to a blog near you
To be continued
PS.. all knee swelling is gone today, the walking helped. WARNING! do not walk on ceramic tile with damp feet...
Oh my gosh, the swelling!! That would bother me more than the bruising. I am so glad you keep doing better, and did not break anything! I always wear socks with those sticky pads on the bottom around the house, and it scares me to go barefoot, because I have bad balance and it is so easy to slip.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you are healing! And thanks for the warning.
ReplyDeletehugs to you we hope it makes a lot of healing progress... we have only one room with ceramic tiles ... and this is the room what holds the record in our house for the most failed double rittbergers and saltos...
ReplyDeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteYup, duly heeded! So glad things are improving for you though. YAM xx
Ouch!!! Good to hear it is improving and you are on the road to recovery. Thanks for the warning.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I don't know which looks more painful, the swelling or the bruising. Glad you're ok now.
ReplyDeleteInam singled you cam resume your routine. And glad the swelling went down when you started being able to move around.
ReplyDeleteGood Grief MS if you didn't live in flat Florida I'd be 100% positive you fell off a mountain. What an ordeal. Thank goodness the bad cuts have healed and you are back to being you in your routine
ReplyDeleteHugs cecilia
Glad you are doing better and healing well but it sure does looks painful!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness...you are bruised from head to toe! We sure bruise easier and it lasts longer too. I'm glad nothing is broken and you can still get around. Take it easy! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThat is gross and sooooo painful looking. That was more than a tumble to the floor...looking for a silver lining, glad no broken bones AND that your fall left no head injuries. Wow, Sandra!!!
ReplyDeleteWOW ... just looking at these make me hurt on your behalf! I'm a little surprised you were able to sleep comfortably. (Remembering my own mystery stain, at least that didn't hurt.) We've got slate stepping stones out front that, if I'm not careful, can mimic an ice-skating rink. I wonder if there's not some inconspicuous-looking adhesive strips y'all could put down near the shower? Cringing at the thought it might happen again to you -- or Bob.
ReplyDeleteSandra - oh my gosh that looks terrible. I had no idea it was that bad. I am so sorry.
ReplyDeleteYikes !!!
ReplyDeleteI knew it was bad but Good Golly that's terrible.
I'm so glad you have been cleared to walk and go back to the pool.
Ouchie, Ouchie...
Please be careful !!!
Sue
Oh my! The swollen ankle looks pretty bad. Glad the walking is helping.
ReplyDeleteOh my... I certainly hope that does not feel as bad as it looks...! Glad you're able to walk!!! ((hugs))
ReplyDeleteOUCH!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo glad the swelling has gone down!!
Yep...exercise helps everything heal! Nice work, Kiddo!!...:)jp
ReplyDeleteWith all those bruises, its a miracle you didn’t break anything.
ReplyDeleteWow, those bruises and swelling did look awful. I am glad you did not break any bones, it hurt looking at your leg. I am glad you are recovering, take care!
