Screws are not supposed to stick out of the bone either right?
I had a similar thing done and just looked at my pics of my xrays (was too poor at the time to get copies). None of mine stick out except maybe the head of one of the screws a little.
It sucks that they charge for copies. I'm in the USA and when I hurt my foot and got X-rays they just made me wait while they burned a CD.
Yeah, here in Japan it seems to be included (or at least extremely cheap). The US is a mess (having grown up there and worked in the healthcare industry there).
You would think, I have a similar intramedullary rod in my leg, and my screws also stick out. Since the screws are there to hold the rod down the inside of the bone in place, they care more about that stability than the screws being a bit long.
I've been told that now that I'm healed, if the hardware is giving me problems, I can have them go in and remove it. Unfortunately, being in the US, that would probably be another 15-20 grand to have done (basically as much as I paid to have it put in when my leg was broken). So at least for now, even though I do have some hardware-related pain, it's not bad enough for me to justify the cost.
Fucking hell. I told my doctors that the titanium in my arm was interfering with my rock climbing and weight lifting and they took it out. I think I paid some token fee.
In Europe, obviously
at least we're liberated now
I’m wondering if it ai generated. The text at the top doesn’t look normal
Edit: wow we’re literally at the point of downvoting people for wondering something?
Always have been. But don't worry: this is Lemmy, where the points don't matter.
Looks just like my X-rays.
