I Broke my foot


Paa Langfart

Recommended Posts

I have a Jones fracture of the foot,  like Olsen,  as well as 3 other meta tarsals broken, and in doing some online research, I found this about Greg Olsen and his broken foot ( x2).  I found it interesting and hope it works well for him and we get his play for a full season this year.  Off season and all.

He's just getting paid. They're not indicated for what he had. 

Conclusions LIPUS can stimulate radiographic bone healing in fresh fractures. Although there is weak evidence that LIPUS also supports radiographic healing in delayed unions and nonunions, it was not possible to pool the data because of a paucity of sufficient studies with similar outcome measures.

All I know is that he came back in 3 weeks last season when pretty much everyone expected him to be out for the rest of the season.  And whether or not a  treatment is  " indicated for what he has " means very little to nothing if you have the money to pay for what ever treatment you think might help. My bet is Olsen checked with team doctors and they said something along the lines of  " it won't hurt your healing time "

I bet Cam was doing stuff that wasn't  "indicated"  for his shoulder as well.

Being indicated for a specific disease or treatment is just a guideline for physicians many times.  From being in the industry physicians use all kind of things for off label uses.  Sometimes it isn’t worth the investment from a company to struggle through the FDA process to get a indication for a disease state that is not that prevalent.  But that doesn’t stop physicians from using it for treatment. And doesn’t mean it doesn’t work.

    • I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
    • The lack of production is especially surprising given how much effort the team put into coaxing the best from him.  In just six short years he’s had the opportunity to work with 3 different GMs, 7 different head coaches and 10 different starting quarterbacks.  There’s literally no excuse to be made that one of those combos didn’t work.  It might be time to look withIAN.
