It's a fluke that Eddie ends up a gymnast. Wayne only signs him up for summer classes at Hawkins's tumbling gym to burn off his excess six-year-old energy. Nobody, lest of all Eddie or Wayne, expects him to be talented at it.

And now, somehow, he's at his first ever elite gymnastics competition. His coaches all said he was good, but he hadn't really had a frame of reference for what that meant. Not until now. Not until he's in 3rd place after high bar, right behind Steve Harrington.

They tumbled together, as little kids. Steve a tiny boy with an absurd pompadour, monopolizing the mats for insane tumbling passes and lording his high-end competition shirts over the other kids (none of the rest even wore actual gymnastics gear; they were six and it was Hawkins).

Now, he's a swaggering fifteen year old with the same pompadour and bad attitude. They're not on the same rotation, but as Eddie moves on from his floor exercise, Steve makes a point to ram into him.

Eddie doesn't react and maybe that would've been the end of it, but he ends up placing, and Steve corners him in the locker room.

"Come to congratulate me?" Eddie smirks.

"You better watch your back, Munson." Steve shoves him into the lockers.

"I knew you were an asshole, Harrington, but I didn't realize you were a sore loser."

Steve leans close, heat melting into Eddie. "You better count yourself lucky you've gotten this far. Not really a sport for poor kids."

Eddie bristles at this. Yeah, sure, his gear is secondhand, and he and Wayne learned how to sew to mend his competition shirts, gymnastics pants, and warmups, but they work hard, together, for Eddie to do this. "Don't worry about how I afford to be here." Eddie checks him as he brushes past. "Just fix those wobbly flairs on pommel."

The rivalry is hot and fierce and mean, made even worse by the fact that Eddie has an enormous hate-boner for Harrington. It's not, Eddie reasons, his fault. He's gay and surrounded by guys whose bodies are honed for a sport based on strength, endurance, and agility, Steve the most beautiful of all. So he looks, and he longs, and he hates Harrington with every fiber of his being.

Eddie's sure this would continue for their competitive lives, but everything changes the summer before their junior years of high school. They're at a training camp, the kind for world champion, Olympic hopeful types. Steve is practicing ring dismounts when he loses himself in the air, lands hard off the mat, destroys something in his knee. He needs surgery, the recovery time 6-8 months, if he's lucky to be able to compete again.

Maybe a year ago, Eddie would be excited by this development, but now it's kind of devastating. He doesn't bother examining why.

--

Steve comes back and he's--different. His first competition, he comes up, asks, "Eddie, hey, can we talk?" And, well, they've never been on a first name basis before and Steve is so so pretty, so he agrees.

"I just want to say, I'm sorry how I treated you back before. I was a real piece of shit and you never deserved it."

Eddie truly doesn't know how to respond, never foresaw this day coming. "Thanks. Uh--yeah. Thanks."

They stare at each other for a few seconds longer before Steve taps him on the shoulder and walks away.

It's not the only thing that's changed about Steve. There's this big group of feral children that follow him around everywhere now. Apparently, Harrington told them Eddie plays dnd and now they follow him around too.

He also. Has a girlfriend now. She's pretty; delicate looking. Her name is Nancy. And she's nice, or whatever. Eddie definitely isn't jealous. It's just. He's been with Steve in locker rooms for years, and he thought--well, he'd seen the way Harrington's eyes sometimes lingered on a bicep, a well-cut thigh, the intrigue of a pelvic v, and he thought--not that it matters, but he thought--

Anyway, Steve has a girlfriend.

---

They're at the winter classic, when it happens.

Eddie is doing good. Like. Really good. Like his routines, they're not flawless, but he's hitting the big skills and sticking landings, and stays in 2nd throughout the majority of the rotations.

It's not a huge shock when he finishes his final rotation, vault, and winds up finishing in 2nd. What is a shock, though, is that, when the scores go up, Steve is wrapping his arms around Eddie's waist, hoisting him into the sky. And, even after he's back on solid ground, Harrington doesn't loosen his hold.

And it's, like. Nothing, right? It's nothing because he has a girlfriend and, sure, maybe he's bi, but that doesn't stop Nancy from existing.

He's not going to think about it, is the thing. He knows it doesn't mean anything, so he isn't going to dwell. It's definitely not all he thinks about during the podium ceremony, or after when he talks to media, or even later walking into the empty locker room.

Or. He thought it was empty. But Steve is there, smiling, saying "you were amazing out there."

They hug again, and Eddie tries not to enjoy the warmth of Harrington's body, the comforting strength of his toned biceps. Eddie pulls back and Steve is--he's so close, gazing at Eddie's lips and--

Steve's mouth is hot and sweet, like he's wearing cherry chapstick, and Eddie can't--he thinks of Nancy; she's nice, doesn't deserve this, they should stop--

But he's sucking on Steve's tongue and Steve is making the sweetest sounds, hard against Eddie's thigh, and nothing else matters.

---

It goes on for months.

Eddie knows he needs to end it, vows to as soon as they're apart.

It all goes out the window as soon as they're together again. He can't get enough. It's Steve. How is he supposed to resist?

(He needs to. It's horrifying, what they're doing to Nancy)

---

The children who follow Steve around invite him to dinner after the first day of the USA gymnastics championships.

Nancy is there.

It's the worst three hours of his life. He can't look at Steve, can barely speak to him.

Nancy is beautiful and smart and kind and strong. She doesn't deserve any of this.

And when Steve drops by his hotel room hours later, Eddie greets him by saying, "I can't do this anymore."

Steve's shoulders drop, eyes squeezing shut. "Right. Yeah, I--Yeah."

"I like you, Steve. A lot. But I can't--you have a girlfriend. And I can't keep being whatever this is for you."

Steve nods, won't meet his eyes. "You're right. It's not fair to either of you. I--My parents expect--And I--I'm sorry," he whispers the last part.

Eddie smiles, heart aching. "Sweetheart. I get it. But. Figure out your shit, yeah? Maybe then we can talk?"

The smile Steve flashes him is a broken thing. "Maybe. Sure."

And that's it.

Eddie cries himself to sleep that night.

The next day, he wins first in the all-around.

---

He and Steve stop speaking.

Somewhere around, ohh, the very first time they hooked up, he caught feelings. So sue him if it kills him, seeing Steve at every competition.

They don't speak again until the Olympic trials. And isn't that ridiculous? Eddie at the Olympic trials. It's such an insane pipe dream, being an Olympian, that he doesn't actually have any expectations whatsoever.

So knock him over with a feather when he fucking makes it on the team.

And so does Steve.

The announcement rings out, and Steve is there, out of nowhere, pulling Eddie into his arms. And Eddie's so hyped, so excited, that he just shouts and hugs Steve right back.

He pretends the proximity, the musk of Steve's cologne, the tangy saltiness of his sweat, doesn't bother him, doesn't transport him immediately back to Steve's bed.

They're teammates now; he can keep it casual.

Right before they leave for the games, news breaks that Steve and Nancy have broken up.

---

The Team competition at the fucking Olympics is going well. They've had good routines, with no huge errors, stay consistently within the top 5 scores. But then they're on the last rotation, parallel bars, and he's the very last competitor to go. They'll win bronze if he can score above 14.933.

But

He's inconsistent on parallel bars, always has been, something deep and psychological he can't quite let go of, and now their medal chances are all on him.

He salutes the judges, jumps into his starting position--and his mind goes quiet. Muscle memory, skill, years of training take over--he's flawless.

Eddie sticks his dismount, and the place erupts. He doesn't have a score yet, doesn't know if he's done it, but the rest of the team screams like he has.

They pull him into their arms, but Steve is closest, his grip the tightest. Their eyes keep catching, holding, and Eddie can't really breathe but he doesn't think it's the anxiety or the excitement.

The score goes up.

Not only is it high enough for bronze, it puts them in silver.

Eddie has barely a second to process before he's being hoisted into the air, Steve's arms bracing him up. The crowd's going crazy, his teammates screaming and hugging him, each other, but all he sees is Steve beaming up at him.

He's slowly lowered to the ground, Steve's arms still around him. "You were perfect, baby," Steve whispers. "Never seen anyone like you."

He wishes he could stay right there, Steve beaming at him, but they won the silver--they won the silver at the goddamn Olympics--and they have to get medals, do interviews.

They don't have a chance to be alone together until they're back at the Village, where Steve is just waiting in Eddie's room when he gets back.

"Is this okay?" Steve asks. "I wanted to talk to you and Jason let me in, but I can--I'll leave."

"Please don't." Eddie swallows. "Stay."

Steve smiles, a little. "I needed to tell you that I'm sorry for what I did to you and Nancy. It was unfair to both of you. I love her, you know? But she's not who--I'm not in love with her."

"No?"

"No. I thought it would make my parents happy, settling down with a nice girl. But it turned out it didn't actually make a difference to them, who I dated. And she isn't who I wanted to be with."

"I'm proud of you for figuring out what you really wanted. It's brave."

"I wish I could've been brave earlier." He gives a little laugh. "Before I hurt you."

Eddie doesn't know what to say to that. He wishes the same thing.

"Um, which is also why I'm here." Steve plucks at the waistband of his Team USA Nike joggers. "I wanted to see if maybe we could try again? Officially this time?"

Eddie can't keep his smile from taking over his entire face. "Sweetheart, I would love to."

"Yeah?"

And Eddie just--after all this time, he just--pulls Steve into his arms and kisses him. The silver medals, still around both of their necks, clink together with the force, but neither of them really care.

Steve sighs, nuzzles his nose to Eddie's. "Missed you so bad," he whispers. "I'm so sorry."

"Me too," Eddie smiles. "But kiss me a while."

Eventually, they fall back onto Eddie's bed, which makes a horrible noise as their combined weight topples onto it, and they break apart to laugh. Steve smooths back his hair, wrapping a few fingers through his curls to keep Eddie close, even though he's not about to go anywhere.

"Can't believe we made it all the way here." Steve's looking at him like he hung the moon

"Cause we're taking medals home?"

"Honey," he laughs. "Because I'm taking you home."

Hello, I saw that your requests are open so could you please write something about Charles taking care of his girlfriend after getting a knee surgery, I got surgery not too long ago (nothing serious) from playing football and I just feel like he would be such a caring boyfriend.

a/n: thank you so much for sending this in!❤️

my masterlist

Ever since you could remember, you have always been the adventurous type.

You would rather go exploring than stay in, the thrill of a potential adventure overpowering the need for a relaxing day in with the one you loved.

Which fitted perfectly with Charles’ need for adventuring and going on as many trips around the world as he could.

But there was a slight problem with that. With the adventurous thrill also came the danger.

And you were very prone to injuring yourself. Just like you had done on the last skiing trip you had gone on with Charles, right before the F1 season started up.

Adventuring a little too much on a not so safe skiing slope resulted in your falling and injuring your knee. An injured knee which required surgery.

You had been devastated when you found out you would need surgery. Not only would the recovery be horrendous and strenuous on your body, but it also meant that Charles would go out of his way to take care of you, neglecting his training in order to make sure you were okay.

That was the biggest problem in your eyes. Not the injury itself, not the surgery that you would need to have, but the fact that Charles would move the mountains in order to take care of you.

Which is exactly what happened. 

You had your surgery two weeks after your knee was injured, a mere couple of weeks before the season picked up again. Charles was proving to be a great caretaker, dotting on you and being the sweetest person ever.

He would bring you food, medicine and anything else you would need in bed, he would help you to the bathroom by supporting you. He got in touch with the best physiotherapist that he knew and immediately started your road to recovery.

He would take you to every single therapy session, every doctor’s appointment that followed your surgery to track your progress and your recovery.

He helped you exercise at home, urging you to push yourself in order to get back on your feet as soon as possible.

He would hold you every time you would break down because it would all get too much. The pain, the recovery, the pressure of getting better, the stress on your body. He would hold you through it all, whispering sweet nothings in your ear that would instantly calm you down.

You didn’t like feeling this helpless, like you couldn’t do anything on your own and practically lived at Charles’ pity.

You hated it.

And Charles had begun suspecting as much. He had noticed how closed off you had become over time, but he didn’t want to say anything that might make you feel even worse than you already did.

“Mon amour, what’s wrong?” he asked one evening after you had got back from a particularly strenuous physical therapy session.

You smiled at him, shaking your head as you rested on the edge of the bed.

“Nothing, I’m okay. Just a little tired” you lied smoothly, but it was not enough to convince him.

“Please don’t lie to me. Something’s been bothering you ever since your surgery, don’t think I haven’t noticed” he said, sitting down beside you.

You sighed, biting your lip. You could feel the tears welling up in your eyes, everything that you had been bottling up threatening to boil over.

“I hate how dependent I have become on you” your voice was small, too worried that you could hurt his feelings.

Charles frowned, the wheels in his head turning to understand what you were really trying to say.

“Am I bothering you? Is that it?” he asked, his face sad and broken like a puppy dog’s.

You immediately shook your head, wanting to get up from the bed and comfort him but it would take you way too much time.

“No, don’t ever think that. It’s me that’s bothering you” you said, your frustrations slowly making their way towards the surface.

If Charles had been confused up to that point, he was even more confused now. How could you ever bother him?

“What do you mean? You’re not bothering me, what are you talking about?” he made his way towards you and took a seat next to you on the bed.

You sighed, tears slowly welling up in your eyes as you rested your head in your hands.

“It’s just this stupid surgery. I can’t even get up to go to the bathroom without needing your help. It’s pathetic, I can’t do anything on my own anymore” you cried silently, hiding your face in your hands.

Charles’ shoulders suddenly slumped into realization, his heart heavy. He didn’t say anything, instead he brought you into his arms and pushed your head into the crook of his neck, wary of twisting you too much because of your knee.

You let out strained and tired sobs, clinging onto Charles like your life depended on it. You had missed him, even though he’s been with you the entire time up until then. You had missed his touch, missed him holding you just because you both needed it. Both of you have been so preoccupied with your recovery, with taking your meds, going to physical therapy with Andrea and managing the pain that you forgot to be just Y/N and Charles, a couple.

You stayed in his arms for a while, just needing to let it all out. He understood that, holding you against him without saying anything, just planting kisses on your forehead from time to time.

Once you calmed down, you slowly pulled away from Charles, who wiped away your tears and gave you a small smile.

“Mon amour, I’m only going to say this once. You will never, ever in this life be a bother to me. I don’t care if I have to take care of you every single day for the rest of our lives, I would drop everything in a heartbeat to be with you. Don’t ever doubt how much I love you and the lengths I would go to just to see you happy and taken care of” Charles’ speech did nothing to stop your sobs, in fact they got even worse.

Charles knew it was the pain and frustration talking from you, and that you didn’t actually mean anything you had said to him. However, he didn’t mind one bit reassuring you and telling you anything that you might need in order to feel better.

“I’m sorry” you mumbled out once you started to calm down a little. 

“You have nothing to be sorry for. I get it, I would probably be the same if I were in your place. Just don’t ever doubt how much I love you and how much I enjoy feeling needed when you need me to take care of you” he joked a little at the end, bringing a smile to your face.

“I love you so much” you said, wrapping your arms around his neck and bringing his lips down to yours.

Between salty kisses and whispered nothings, you realized that even through the rough patches, Charles would always be there to get you through everything.

Your caretaker for life.

I Promised You Forever | Jay Halstead

⚠️ THIS IS A REPOST FROM MY MAIN BLOG @/DLMLUFICS.

Pairing: Jay Halstead x Reader

Request: From anon

Fic Type: Imagine

Warnings: A little angst. A little fluff. Mentions of a shooting and surgeries.

Word Count: 945

JAY HALSTEAD MASTERLIST || TAG LIST SIGN-UP

“Get to Med… Jay’s been shot.” 

As she waits in the waiting room at Gaffney Chicago Medical Center, the sound of her sergeant’s words echoes in her ears. Her heart is racing, her knee is bouncing, her hands are trembling, and dried up tear streaks run down her face. She feels like she’s been sitting in the room for an eternity, waiting for any news about her husband’s condition. He was already in surgery by the time she got at the hospital, which was a little more than two hours ago.  

“Y/N!” she hears her partner, Kim Burgess, call out as she approaches her. When the brunette reaches her, she embraces her tightly. 

After Jay and Y/N revealed their relationship to Voight, the two women became partners. They’ve been like sisters since they went through the academy together, and they got even closer after Y/N and Hailey Upton were transferred to Intelligence after Erin Lindsey left.  

“Has there been any news?”  

“I haven’t heard anything; Will just went to see if he can get an update,” she says before breaking down again. “I can’t lose him, Kim,” she cries into the shoulder of her best friend. “I can’t do it without him. We just got married. I can’t be without him.”  

“Jay’s strong; he’ll get through this,” Kim reassures her as she rubs her back and squeezes her even tighter; it crushes her heart to see her best friend and chosen sister like this. 

“Did you get the person who shot him?” she says, pulling away from Kim and angrily wiping away the fresh set of tears that are falling.  The anger in eyes and voice wasn’t intended for her partner, or Adam who had been with Jay at the time of the shooting, or the rest of their team but at the guy who fired the gun at her husband and shot him. She begged Hank to give her five minutes with the person when they apprehended him, but Hank ordered her to stay at the hospital because that’s where she needed to be the most and swore he wouldn’t go easy with the guy. 

Kim replies, moving to sit in the chair next to the one she was in, “He’s in custody. Voight’s making his life a living hell, I’m sure of it.”  

She sits back down next to her and asks, “How’s Ruz?”  

“He’s blaming himself,” Kim replies. “He’ll be here when he’s cleaned himself up, and the others will be here after they’ve finished with the interrogation.”  

She nods, letting Kim know she heard her. 

Minutes pass as they sit in quiet, Kim holding her hand and reminding her that she is not alone. Will eventually returns and informs her that there haven’t been any updates just yet before he leaves once more to grab them all some coffee.  

Just as Will comes back with Adam following behind him, the surgeon walks into the waiting room. 

As he approaches, Y/N and Kim get to their feet. As the doctor begins to talk, Will moves to stand next to his sister-in-law. “Surgery went smoothly. We removed the bullet, stopped the bleeding, and repaired the damage the bullet caused. Jay will make a full recovery, but he will need to take it easy for some time.”  

Y/N exhales with relief, “I’ll make sure he does. Can we see him?”  

“Two at a time,” the doctor says with a nod.  

“Adam and I will go update everyone,” Kim says to her and Will before exiting the waiting room with Adam.  

The doctor leads Will and Y/N to the room where Jay has been moved. Jay opens his eyes and looks sleepily at his wife and brother as soon as they enter the room.  

“Oh, baby,” Y/N breathes as she walks over to his bed and takes his hand in hers, looking at him with tenderness. “Please don’t put me through that again.”  

“I can’t make any promises,” he says drowsily with a small smile. He raises her hand and kisses the back of it.  

“How are you feeling?” Will asks as he stands beside Y/N.  

Jay jokes with a slight smirk on his lips, “Like I was shot.  

Y/N scowls at him, not in the mood for jokes right now, and says, "Don’t joke.” 

“You love me, and you know it,” he gives her a small smile letting her know he’s teasing her.  

“I need to get back to work, but I’ll stop by after my shift,” Will tells his brother, stopping Y/N from that is retaliating. “I’ll make sure to bring you some decent food.”  

“Thank you, Will,” she says as he exits the room. Looking back at her husband, she sits on the edge of the hospital bed, clutching his hand on her lap. “I was so scared I would lose you.”  

“I’m not going anywhere,” he assures her. “We still have a lot to do together.”  

She leans down and gives him a soft kiss while whispering, “I love you.”  

“I love you too,” he replies as he kisses her again. “Now, come lie down with me.” 

“You’ve just gotten out of surgery. I don’t want to cause you more pain.”  

“They’ve got me on the good stuff, honey, and after what I just went through, all I want to do is hold my wife and remind her that us Halstead’s aren’t easy to take down,” he says and pulls her close to him, moving them so she can lay down beside him.  

With his arm across her shoulders and her head on his, he presses a kiss to her forehead and whispers, “I promised you forever. I’m keeping that promise.”

[twisted-wonderland-shenanigans]

Hi! I just have to say, I love your blog so much!!! And the monster au idea is genius! I started reading what you posted out and loved it! I saw people doing questions on it so here's my own, what would happen if Yuu broke a bone in some kind of accident? Wether it was indirectly their friends fault because they were fooling around or something else entirely and they just "weren't there to prevent it" (I can imagine the researchers would be quite In a frantic panic if they see the only human in their world getting hurt) how would the others react?

Oh goodness, that would cause quite the stir at NRC for sure! I’ve never broken a bone before, but there was one time I got punched in the face by a tree branch that got caught on the bag of the tall person I was hiking behind a few years ago. My nose was okay, but I still experience phantom pain whenever I think about that day! 😂

As a human in a world full of monsters, it’s not hard to imagine that the physical differences are more than cosmetic. Some monsters are more fragile than others, while some are so sturdy that they’re like a moose getting hit by a car—meaning that it’ll take a lot to hurt them. It’s also possible for them to heal quickly if they do get injured, though I like to imagine that they do get assistance when they need it!

Prosthetic arms, legs, tails, or wings? Yes!

Wheelchairs even for those with more than two legs? Yes! (Was I thinking of those videos of paralyzed puppies and kittens in makeshift wheelchairs scootering around? Yes. Yes I was)

Crutches and those scooter things you see where the person has their leg propped up and they’re moving around like they’re on a kid’s scooter (I think they’re called “knee scooters”?)? Absolutely!

All this is to say that—while not as fragile as a human—monsters know how to set and heal broken bones!

Dealing with the fact that their human friend has a broken bone, however, is a whole different kettle of fish depending on the type of fracture.

WARNING: Mention of bodily injury and blood. No major details, but proceed with caution! Under a read more just in case, but please let me know if I need to add any other tags so I can also tag things properly in the future!

Hairline fracture on their foot caused by hooves stepping on them? It’s manageable, though it may take a day or two for Yuu to notice they have an injury unless it’s run day at PE. Once it’s wrapped up in a cast to heal on its own, Yuu notices how any student with hooves (especially Deuce) will be more cautious about how close they stand to them or where their legs are when around the small human.

Dislocated arm from a friendly wrestling match and/or someone fell on top of their arm? Horrified screams all around upon seeing Yuu’s arm hanging limp by their side and their face contorted in pain. Once it’s popped back into place by the medical staff and put into a sling to speed up the recovery, it’s somewhat amusing seeing how their friends look like kicked puppies as they try and help Yuu with things around the dorm or in class. “It’s our fault you got hurt in the first place” is what they’d say if Yuu asked them why they were fussing. It’s sweet, but it’s up to Yuu to tell them to ease up and that they will ask for help when they need it.

Broken arm or leg? I can see this going one of two ways for both cases. If the arm or leg has a closed fracture where they can see part of the bone under the skin but the skin itself hasn’t broken? You can bet that there’s going to be a lot of concern about it. Depending on what the x-rays show, the boys and staff will be even more concerned if the incident resulted in Yuu needing surgery to repair the damage. A compound fracture though? Well…

Let’s just say that the moment the monsters smell the blood, they’ll immediately realize that something was wrong before they even see the bone jutting out from the large wound. This is a worst-case-scenario that—despite their best efforts—the medical teams may not feel they’ve prepared enough for as they search for blood that can safely be used to replenish what Yuu lost during the accident and in the surgery to try and repair the damage…or amputate to save their life.

It’s a highly stressful time for all, to the point many of Yuu’s friends can’t even focus on their work—not that the staff can blame them. They’re just as worried that Yuu might lose their life or limb...

When Yuu does manage to pull through sporting a new cast (if a little worse for wear), Yuu had better be prepared to have quite a few clingy monsters sticking to them like velcro! And gifts. Lots and lots of gifts!

I’d like to take a moment to point out that humans can be hurt by the most ridiculous things and yet in life-or-death situations. They’re able to crawl through snow with a broken leg for several miles, yet the moment they stub their toe on a coffee table leg? Down for the count.

Table: 1, Human: 0. U.U

So can you imagine just how horrified the guys would be to hear that Yuu/one of their relatives/a friend of theirs once broke their leg and crawled to safety in a major weather storm, yet just two minutes later they stub their toe and now they’re on the ground whimpering in pain. X’DDD

Also, to further prove that animals (and therefore the monsters) can have compassion for those who are disabled, just remember that there is a crow couple that’s been together for 12+ years and even though she has a broken beak, he and the rest of their flock protect her. ;;v;;

So, I'll be having some minor surgery in a couple months. I thought it would be cool to have Gale worried for/doting on [reader or tav] before and after. idk if that's weird or whatever, but just the idea of Gale being comforting, concerned, and just loving as all get out would make me feel a lot more at ease with this whole ordeal. I hope this is an ok prompt to request, but I understand if it's uncomfy for reasons.

Oh, anon I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I hope I can give you even the smallest bit of comfort, and thank you for your request 💜 here is about 1k words of pure comfort and doting.

Books and Basalm [also readable on Ao3]

Tav x Gale [Gender-nooch Tav. No pronouns used for Tav and no descriptions of any physical features at all.]

CW/Tags: medical/hospital type situation (not detailed in any way). FLUFF. All comfort no hurt.

Despite having read everything he could get his hands on about the procedure, and asking the cleric so many questions Tav had to gently tell him to leave the poor man alone, Gale was not allowed in the room. He’d made his displeasure very known, but Tav had patted his hand in a clear signal to shut up. He physically had to bite his own tongue to prevent more nervous babbling.

“I think we ought to get started,” the cleric said to Tav with a smile. Despite his obvious disinterest in speaking any further with Gale, he at least kept his bedside manner for his patient.

“You’ll be here when it’s done?” Tav asked.

Gale knelt next to the bed, ignoring the crackling protest of his knees. “I’ll be on the other side of this door the entire time.” He pointed to the very one which he would be sure not to leave. “The Gods themselves couldn’t pull me away.”

Tav laughed a little at the dramatics and leaned into the gentle kiss he gave. After a few final kisses and another pressed atop Tav’s head for good measure, Gale pulled himself away. He stationed himself directly on the other side of the door, as he had promised. He was a logical man, he saw sense and reason before much else, but he was at his core quite prone to wild emotion despite his academic mind.

Leading up to that moment there was not much he didn’t do by Tav’s side. Even when they had been out on the road, while he never had much skill in healing magic, he had always been nearby enough to know what was going on. All he could manage this time was his assurance Tav had the best healers the city could offer and a tower over-prepared to accommodate the recovery.

It took hours. He didn’t notice irritated looks of the other healers walking through the halls when he began to pace back and forth, only stopping to lean his back against the wall and then have to move again once his mind took off. It was impossible to keep still for very long.

When he was finally allowed back in the room, Tav was still asleep thanks to a potion and the cleric was assuring him everything went fine. Once Tav woke up, they could make their way back to the comfort of the tower. While the cleric started giving instructions for recovery, Gale found himself cutting him off with his new extensive knowledge on the subject, watching the cleric grow annoyed at him again. Gale was used to people’s thinly veiled irritation at his volubility, but be it nerves or something else he couldn’t stop himself.

The cleric excused himself as soon as he possibly could, and Gale sat nearby, ready to be the first thing Tav saw after waking up. He mindlessly practiced somatic movements, he flipped through his spellbook distractedly and then mentally triple checked he had everything he needed to properly care for Tav back at the tower. To him, it felt like hours, but in reality it didn’t take too long for Tav to wake up from the sleep potion that had been administered for the procedure. Eyes blinking open, Tav groaned, and Gale jumped up to shush and soothe them.

“There you are, my love,” he said quietly. “How do you feel?”

“Tired,” Tav groaned. “Sore.”

“Completely normal,” he pressed a kiss to Tav’s forehead, “we’ll get you home and with a cup of tea for the pain expeditiously.”

“It went alright?” Tav asked.

“The cleric has no concerns,” he smiled, “all that’s left to do is rest and recover.”

The cleric came in for a final check in, making sure Tav was alright to head back home. The waiting was the worst part, Gale was certain they need not put off leaving where Tav could rest well and with whatever could possibly be needed. It took some creativity on Gale’s part to get them both safely back to their bedroom in the tower with no added strain on Tav, but he managed it.

Tara sat perched expectantly on the bed, head tilted in quiet examination. “Welcome home,” she said, tail flicking back and forth behind her. “everything went well, I hope?”

“Besides the pain, I think I’m alright,” Tav smiled tiredly.

“Tea!” Gale said insistently. “I have tea that will be just the thing.”

Gale got Tav situated in the bed, with pillows arranged for maximum comfort and support. He opened the window for cool fresh ocean air to come in, and Gale only left Tav’s side to prepare some tea with basalm salts for the pain. While he was gone Tara had settled herself gently against Tav’s side, purring away.

When he came with the tea, water and a potion of rest, Tav could have laughed at his over preparedness.

As Tav reclined in the bed, sipping tea, he sat at the bedside in an armchair. “Gale?”

“Yes, my love, what do you need?”

Tav chuckled at his earnestness. “I’m bored.”

“Ah, well, we have a treasure trove of entertainments,” he replied, “what better to soothe the pains of ailment and the pangs of boredom than a book!” He eagerly added, “what will you choose? A stirring tale of heroics? A dissertation on the merits of illusory spellcraft? Or perhaps an anthropological study on the courts of the Feywild?”

Tav shrugged, “your choice, really, I was looking for an excuse to have you sit and read to me.”

“You hardly need an excuse for that,” Gale smiled.

He grabbed the book he was in the middle of on his bedside table, something light for reading before bed. Carefully, he nestled in beside Tav, sure not to disrupt his perfectly calibrated arrangement of pillows made for Tav’s ideal comfort. Under his watch, with tea to soothe and a book, Gale felt sure Tav would be okay.

Two pages into him reading, Tav had fallen asleep with the tea cup precariously resting in hand. Gale plucked it away, giving a gentle kiss upon Tav’s brow as he leaned over to set it aside.

Thank you so much for reading! 💜💜

'Petition For NYC & Others'

© Raul Cortes Junior 10 - 24 - 2024

I want to take this time to ask for the supernatural energy of compassion (aka the holy spirit), to dwell within me right now.

I am thankful for this moment & what I am allowed to do, to pray, write petition for the well being of others & myself.

I don't know what is going on with my social media sites that I created yesterday because I can't log into them at this present time, except for tumblr, I intend positive energetic alms to different groups of people in this writing/petition.

I have been given a lot of false information & had experienced a lack of trust among my surroundings, that led to a lot misunderstanding & misinformation.

I begin my prayer with the library, staff workers & security guards, as I type these words.

From all lightworkers to the creator of all in heaven,

most valuable is your name all throughout the universe,

may your kingdom manifest & your will be accomplished,

on earth as it is in heaven,

give your lightworkers on this day daily nourishment,

& forgive us our faults & mistakes, as we forgive the faults & mistakes of others,

& do not lead us to be tempted, yet deliver us from all evil schemes & plots,

For yours is the kingdom, the power & all the honor, may it be so.

 Further more, I pray for all politicians, celebrities, entertainers, artists & legal teams that represent true justice, here in New York City.

According to your will, Creator of all,

Bless with good health, good fortune & overall exceptional human interaction with beings of every kind, especially those who mean well & want to make the world a better place.

May controversies, rumors & character assassinations cease, if lies are being spread. May justice prevail, if indeed, crimes were committed.

Now I must say that, in order for this petition to have any lasting impact, one must consider, that yes my prayer has power (as it has been shown on multiple occasions), however, the people with covert-oversight of my life situation should consider the intention towards my wellbeing, (with it being purely a good & actively productive intention).

Now, I petition, that people...

with diabetes, asthma, HIV, cancer, high blood pressure, hurt knees, back pain, migraines, surgery recoveries, toothaches, lethargy, grief stricken, curses, intrusive energies, remote device influences & other difficulties,

...be released from all of these oppressions, if it be in the will of the Creator, & that there is a guide to provide specific instructions to receive deliverances of some of these oppressions & struggles.

This petition goes out to my entire biological family, ex friends, employment associates, artists, collaborators, activists, religious members & all other persons I have ever known, nearby in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania & as far away as Canada, UK London, Florida, Virginia Beach, Puerto Rico & beyond.

I also petition & pray that, I too, receive miracles & blessings as well, (the writer of this petition). In the name of the only begotten son of the creator, Jesus Christ, the entity of salvation for all who truly believe, AMEN.

Pristyn Care: Innovations in ACL Surgery: The Development and Use of Synthetic Ligaments

Anterior cruciate injuries are one of the most common but most crippling sports-related injuries caused to athletes from amateur to professional levels. It limits the knee joint from unstable activities for rotating and forward movements. The injury of the ACL can reduce the mobility of joints, causing chronic pain, and deteriorating the quality of life drastically.

In most of the cases, it necessitates surgery. New developments, techniques of production, and ways to use synthetic ligaments nowadays represent a true revolution in orthopedic medicine. All the novelties in treatment were taken into consideration by Pristyn Care in its work to innovate the Pristyn healthcare services, and as soon as the patients began to take the benefit of the most advanced options for ACL repair through minimally invasive interventions, the expanded benefits of minimally invasive techniques began to be evident clearer.

Importance of ACL Reconstruction

The ACL plays a very important part in the stability and movement of the knee joint; basically, activities such as walking, running, and jumping are regulated. These micro-injuries, if not halted in the growth phase, can grow into serious knee instability. The individual is put at risk of further injuries and a high probability of degenerative, destructive joint conditions of the osteoarthritic type. It is estimated that about 200,000 reconstructions of the ACL are carried out annually across the globe, and the question of finding and applying an integral treatment suddenly becomes urgent.

Most notably, the introduction of artificial ligaments entirely changed the idea of ACL reconstruction; it was the arrival on the market of a durable commercial analog of traditional grafts. In most cases, the period of recovery was elongated by the occurrence of pain in the donor area and the need to recover two traumatized areas and to use transplant tissue taken from the body of the patient. Contemporary solutions, backed by state-of-the-art equipment and the teams of surgeons in the Pristin Care facilities, have brought initiation of repair of an ACL tear to a new level—the maximum quality of life that individuals devastated by such an injury can hope for.

Synthetic ligaments. What exactly are synthetic

Some of the commonly used and developed synthetic implants are the synthetic ligaments used in orthopedic surgery. More precisely, they are artificially created biomaterials used in cases of a technique for replacing damaged natural ligaments. The synthetic ligaments are not autografts, allografts, or autografts harvested from the body of the patient but, on the contrary, they are biocompatible polymers in origin.

The various available options of synthetic ligaments and benefits brought by it include good quality, which is consistent; unlimited supply; and no morbidity at the donor site. The extraction of autografts can be a bit frightening to the patient, and most of the time, more time for recovery is needed. Other than that, synthetic ligaments minimize the time used during the surgery because grafting is not necessary.

That is why advanced synthetic ligaments are increasingly being used as a substitute for grafting, since, in some places, the availability of appropriate and right donor grafts is very limited. This, therefore, enhances the access and timeliness of the surgeries for anybody in need of ACL.

Where Technological Innovations Impact Development on Synthetic Ligaments

The development of an artificial ligament, and more so that of an artificial fiber, is an extremely interdisciplinary field of materials science and engineering, aiming to produce fibers with properties analogous to natural ligaments. If performed on a human knee, that material should be strong, flexible, and durable enough to bear the dynamic stresses. Modern ones are made using advanced polymers, usually polyethylene terephthalate, and polyurethanes for their qualities of strength and elasticity.

This is particularly the case since such developments are specifically targeted at the improvement in the integration of such material with human tissue, the further reduction of risks for tissue rejection, as well as the enhancement of the healing process itself. Particularly, "Pristyn Care" is engaged in doing the given research process further enhancing the boundary of what is possible to be done with synthetic ligament technology. Focusing on knee biomechanics allows developers to adapt how a ligament's structure is formed to recreate natural motion while at the same time reducing complications and inducing new methods of natural and efficient ways of healing.

The newest technologies will save artificial knee ligaments from being inferior or just equal to the traditional knee-ligament grafts and most of the time, they will be far above benchmark levels by such a huge amount, marking a huge leap in ACL reconstruction technology.

How Pristyn Care is Changing the Way ACLs are Reconstructed

Pristyn Care leads from the front in the adaptation and innovation of methods for synthetic ligaments in the reconstruction of ACLs. There is a deep commitment to the assimilation of the latest in medical innovations with the aid of advanced technology that supports conducting such complex procedures in ultra-modern surgical facilities. With patient safety and surgical efficacy set to be a priority, the surgical centers of Pristyn Care can perform every ACL surgery under the best of conditions. Moreover, Pristyn Care is actively involved in partnering with advanced medical researchers and bioengineers to further enhance effectiveness and safety in the use of synthetic ligaments.

Reviews of ACL surgery operations under the aegis of Pristyn Care state that the medical staff were professional, the facilities were modern, and generally, surgeries were performed with good outcomes. All these statements refer not to new medical technologies but to the high rates of patient satisfaction and trust.

Advantages of Synthetic Ligaments in ACL Reconstruction

Using synthetic ligaments in ACL reconstruction has one major benefit which is the elimination of donor site morbidity. Unlike conventional techniques that include removing body tissue from a patient, these issues can be avoided by using synthetic ligaments. Therefore, it is widely recognized as an effective approach that lessens the chances of postoperative infection and pain reduction along with a quicker & easier recovery process. Pristyn Care reviews indicate that patients have highly ranked this method because they recover within a short time and experience minimal postoperative discomfort.

Pristyn healthcare reviews indicate that Pristyn Care’s use of synthetic ligament in ACL surgery has yielded outstanding results, which have enabled patients to make fast comebacks for sports and their normal duties. 

In Pristyn Care reviews, people talk about how much they are satisfied with the minimal interruption to their lives, and the quickness with which they recovered. Good testimonials through Pristyn Healthcare reviews emphasize how advanced surgical practices and individualized treatments offered by Pristyn Care are geared towards providing high-quality health services resulting in the best outcomes.

Identify the Challenging Issues and Consider

The utilization of synthetic materials in surgical procedures presents both opportunities and challenges. Although these materials can enhance the recovery process due to their design to integrate with tissue without triggering an immune response, their long-term durability remains a concern. Pristyn Care reviews often highlight the rigorous monitoring of synthetic-tendon integration, particularly under the continuous stress imposed by daily activities. This is an area of active research within Pristyn healthcare reviews, focusing on enhancing the material's ability to withstand long-term use without compromising safety.

Additionally, regulatory and ethical factors about these techniques are vital. In addition, all synthetic materials used are strictly regulated by Pristyn Care for maximum safety. This commitment to safety standards is reflected in Pristyn healthcare reviews where the rigorous clinical trials and medical & ethical constraints are highly acknowledged. These materials undergo stringent safety checks before their approval for use so that they conform with the highest possible safety standards hence maintaining the reputation of Pristyn Care as a provider of safe, innovative, and effective Pristyn health care solutions.

Patient Success Stories and Case Studies

Against this backdrop, many life-changing benefits make patients at Pristyn feel that their ACL is rebuilt with synthetic ligaments. This is not on paper, but one watches how a patient describes getting back to sports activity after months of surgery and says great recovery is credited to great care. Another case in point reflects a patient who almost felt no pain with rapid rehabilitation due to advanced surgical techniques at Pristyn Care. These stories strengthen the good reviews about high satisfaction rates and successful surgical outcomes on Pristyn healthcare platforms.

Conclusion

ACL injuries are mostly known as anterior cruciate ligament injuries and they are common and severe, especially in high-impact sports or activities that involve the knee joint heavily. These injuries negatively affect performance, so it requires a well-planned recovery plan to safely go back to what one was doing before. One main surgical procedure through which the normal functions of the knee can be restored is known as ACL reconstruction. The Return to Play (RTP) protocols post-surgery should be focused on total recuperation, prevention of future traumas, and restoration of peak levels of performance. For Pristyn Care, emphasis has been put on RTP post-ACL reconstruction to achieve full patient recovery and enable them to regain their best level of performance. In Pristyn care reviews, there is usually mention of how effective its customized RTP protocols are because these protocols help in preventing reinjuries. Further, Pristyn Healthcare reviews also hail the individualistic approach taken during the rehabilitation period which has significantly improved the success rates for ACL surgeries conducted at Pristyn Care.

Leo's injuries in my fic I'm making

Over 35 injuries (my boy's going through it 😞)

*All recovery times will be less than stated, due to Leo’s mutant healing factor. 

Ruptured eardrum. Will heal within 3 - 6 weeks. Take antibiotics + ear drops.

2. Scrapes on feet.

3. Bruising on tailbone + lower back. Recovery time: 4 - 6 weeks.

4. Skidded knees.

5. Bloody nose.

6. Bruised face.

7. Scratched arms, legs, hand, knees, and plastron.

8. Scraped Shell + Arms.

9. Broken Ankle (Lateral malleolus fracture). This is the most common type of ankle fracture. It is a break of the lateral malleolus, the knobby bump on the outside of the ankle (in the lower portion of the fibula). Recovery time: 8 weeks. Boot for the last 5.

10. Cuts and scrapes on the left side of the body, bruising from around there.

11. Broken ribs on his left. Recovery time: 6+ weeks.

12. Bruising surrounding said ribs.

13. Mild bruising and scratching on shoulder.

14. Black eye.

15. Dented top-middle shell. 

16. Concussion from whiplash.

17. Shell punctures from claws and surrounding cracks.

18. Broken shell. Recovery time: 1+ yrs. Drill small screws into the shell on either side of the fracture and then wrap wire around the screws, tightening the shell down almost like opposing tissue during suturing. Apply fiberglass patch and resin. Wrap with sterile gauze to help stabilize any broken shell pieces that may be present. 

19. Fractured clavicle (collarbone). Recovery time: 6 - 8 weeks. Sling. 

20. Fractured temporal skull. Recovery time: 5 - 7 weeks.

21. Broken femur (thighbone). Recovery time: 4 - 6 months.

22. Punctured lung. Recovery time: 6 - 8 weeks. 

23. Neck bruising.

24. VERY skinned knees and lower legs.

25. Back of arms + shell got cut by claws.

26. Broken humerus (upper arm bone). Recovery time: 4+ months. Needs  temporary splint extending from the shoulder to the forearm and holding the elbow bent at 90 degrees.

27. Broken scapula (shoulder blade). Recovery time: 6-12 weeks. Needs short-term immobilization along with motion exercises to prevent adhesive capsulitis, also called frozen shoulder.

28. Fractured vertebrae. Recovery time: 3+ months. Would need a brace, but with his shell, it won't happen.

29. Fractured orbital bone (eye socket). Recovery time: 3+ weeks. 

30. Pneumothorax (collapsed lung). Recovery time: 1 - 3 weeks. Needs chest tube (but how will THAT work?).

31. Bruised liver (minor). Recovery time: 1 - 2 weeks.

32. Stomach bleed. Will lead to vomiting blood, yay.

33. Fractured sternum (breast bone). Recovery time: 6 weeks. Sternal injuries can usually be treated conservatively involving rest, restrictions of activities and painkillers, or occasionally through some form of intervention including targeted physical therapy.

34. Mild brain bleed. Recovery time: 6+ months. Surgery needed to drain blood from the brain Draining the fluid that surrounds the brain creates room for the hematoma to expand without damaging brain cells. Drugs are used to control blood pressure, seizures or headaches. Burr hole surgery is the main treatment for subdural hematomas that develop a few days or weeks after a minor head injury (chronic subdural hematomas). During the procedure, one or more small holes (the size of dimes) are drilled in the skull and a flexible rubber tube is inserted to drain the hematoma. Will drain within 2 - 3 days.

35. Second degree burns on his front. Recovery time: 1 - 3 weeks. Treat with antibiotic cream and wrap if the skin is raw, if the blisters open, or if there is risk of infection.

Homeboy will also deal with some other stuff, see my other post about it.

I'm fine (revised)- Athena & Simon

Return to File

Recovery date: August 17th, 2020

Description: While in the office, Athena starts to feel sharp pains in her abdomen. Phoenix, wanting to be safe, has Apollo take her to the ER.

Notes: Content warning for minor medical emergency. After consideration of the previous entry, a revision was made.

Word count: 578

Back to directory

“Hey Athena, are you okay?” Trucy asked. The young magician was currently sprawled out on the couch playing with a deck of cards. Athena was sitting on the couch across from her working.

“Uh, ya. Why?” Athena’s voice lacked some of it’s usual beat. Trucy narrowed her eyes and frowned, but before she could speak, Apollo piped up.

“Liar,” he said, he didn’t even look up from his work. “I’m sure Mr. Wright will let you go home if you need to. We’ve got things here covered.”

“Thanks, but I-” A wave of nausea came over her, and she covered her mouth as she braced herself on her knees. “Ow,” she groaned, placing a hand on her abdomen as she sat up again.

“Apollo, do you mind driving Athena to the ER?” He looked over at the man. “Better safe than sorry, abdominal pain can be really severe.”

---

“Simon, I’m fine. The doctors said I can probably go home tomorrow, you don’t need to stick around,” Athena sighed for the hundredth time.

After an hour or so of surgery, and another hour or so recovering from the anesthetic, she was finally feeling back to her regular self. During that time, Simon had never left the hospital. Phoenix had called him just after she'd gone into surgery.

The pain had started this morning before work, Athena had noticed her abdomen looked a little puffy and she felt a dull pain. But she’d waved it off as nothing more than an uncomfortable gas bubble, nothing strange. Still, she’d taken a tylenol and headed into the office. Another red flag should have been her disinterest in eating. She’d only eaten a piece of toast as opposed to her usual breakfast sandwich, if Simon were there he would have said something. That was why she hadn’t objected when Mr.Wright had Apollo drive her to the ER.

When they arrived, she was surprised at how quickly she was seen and how fast she was taken into surgery after. Not that she had been to the ER often, but the wait time always seemed endless. It had scared her a bit.

“I know what the doctor said, Cykes-dono, however I do not wish to leave you alone,” Simon said, as he continued to work. While Edgeworth had let him leave the office, he still had work to finish.

“I’m not alone, I’m in a hospital full of people,” she waved her arms over exaggeratedly, only to wince at the pull in her side. It could have been worse, she kept reminding herself. “Besides, Mr.Wright’s bringing me takeout for dinner. So I won’t be alone for long.” She sighed. “I don’t want your work to build up because of me,” she said softly.

Simon stopped typing and looked up. “Cykes-dono,” he stopped. “Athena, it is my job to make sure you’re okay. I am not leaving this room until you do.”

Athena looked down and began to play with her sheets. “Bu-”

“I have already requested the next few weeks off, I have quite a bit of vacation time accumulated. You aren’t getting rid of me,” he smiled. It was so often the other way around, with him pushing Athena to stop worrying.

“I can take care of myself,” she huffed, still playing with the sheets.

“I know you can, but as you are so fond of reminding me: Just because you can take care of yourself, doesn’t mean you always have to.”

Heyo! Sorry for the delay. I was right in the middle of moving houses and transferring to a different store so I had no time to post last week. I also bought a new mattress that I had to get set up on Tuesday last week on top of everything else. So I was a teeny tiny bit busy. ^___^ Like I've been literally living out of boxes in an almost empty house surrounded by dust bunnies. Only the sound of the show on my laptop and the owls out back for company. -plays the worlds smallest violin for myself- Anyway! Update time is now!

Linktree to all the things!

End notes for the chapter are under the line.

What's going to happen to you indeed. Will the heroes help him or throw him to the wind? We'll find out next time! ^_____^ Oh and if anyone was expecting a reunion with Hitoshi this chapter, sorry to disappoint but we had to get the tough stuff over with before the fluff. And Izuku was still being processed and needed the talk with the authorities first. So yeah, Hitoshi was at the hospital but won't meet up again with Izuku until later.

Condolences to Izuku's hand. It'll be a tough journey but he's still going to try his best going forward. Also me being me, I have plans. ;) And the physical therapy should help judging from my own experience of pt since I messed up my knee. I saw some people in for their hands after surgery and I don’t know much what would be recommended but I’ll do some research and see what I find. But pt does help! I learned some good exercises and tricks to help with my own recovery. So if you ever get injured like me or get surgery def do the pt after.

All the comforting physical support! :D Aizawa figured that out ages ago and Nezu has too. I have read some fics where Nezu was against physical touch due to his years of experimentation. Which valid if it was forced upon him but I'm more going with the animal instincts to comfort those in their pack of sorts. Honestly all of Izuku's mentors have already mentally adopted Izuku anyway so to me they are all a big unofficial family.

So what will happen to Izuku? You'll find out next chapter! Again thank you for the patience. I'm now moved into the new house and officially transferred to the new store. And I am typing this while on my brand new fancy mattress. Now all I gotta do is unpack the gazillion boxes in my room. Yay moving. :P Alrighty. I shall leave y'all with this until next time. Byeee!

[laf-outloud]

So consult, tests, follow up, JIB? Is it that surgeries take a long time to schedule in the US or that they're waiting until after because so few of the cast are scheduled this time?

You're asking questions I can't answer, anon! I think people assumed Jared would be getting surgery, but it may be that he was just doing a consult while in Chicago and they may not opt for surgery.

If he is going to do surgery, then yes, it can take a while to get that scheduled out, especially if it's an elective surgery (non-emergency).

Jared's under no obligation to tell us his plans for his knee, but I assume if he does have surgery, we'll see the results at some future convention. (The type of surgery can also dictate recovery time, so that's unknown as well.)

How will ayurvedic medicine heal Arthritis?

Ortho Veda oil has shown excellent results in recovering from arthritis problem whose major symptoms are:

1)   Inflammation

2)   Pain

3)   Swelling

4)   Aching

5)   Stiffness

The word” arthritis “  itself indicates joint inflammation. It is the loss of cartilage that gives rise to inflammation, intense pain and mobility issues to the person and that can spread across other connecting issues which are ligaments and tendons.

Researchers point out 100 types of arthritis that can happen at any age , pertaining to nutritional deficiency , sedentary habits, and alcoholism.

Types of Arthritis

-----------------------------------

Let’s understand the selected major types of arthritis damaging the physical mobility and mental health are:

1)   Inflammatory arthritis

For unexplained reasons, several people have been diagnosed with inflammatory arthritis. It gives rise to swelling, pain and stiffness. Without experiencing injuries or cuts, one can get affected with inflammatory arthritis in several joints. Damage is done to the surface and also to the bones. Examples are rheumatoid arthritis, reactive arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondilytis

2)   Degenerative

Degenerative arthritis is characterized by loss of cartilage from the surface of the bones which actually holds the bones together, causing lubrication and smooth movement.

3)   Connective tissue disorder

In this type of arthritis, one experiences destruction in the tendons and ligaments apart from cartilage. It can further damage the connecting tissues of skin, lungs and kidney. The examples of connective tissue disorder are:

1)   Scleroderma

2)   Lupus or SLE

3)   Dermatomyosytis.

4)   Sjogren’s

4)   Metabolic

This type of arthritis occurs in the form of deposits of uric acid crystals in the area of joints due to disorder in the urinary system. And it leads to development of gout arthritis. It is one of the major signs noted in diabetic persons in the form of sudden pain and swelling.

5)   Septic

It is the result of bacterial or fungal infection that can affect the knee and hip area of the body. Infection from the external sources like injury or surgery, reaching the joints and bones through the blood

6)   Childhood

It is a juvenile rheumatoid arthritis which can do permanent damage to the bones.

Hamstring Tendon Autografts in ACL Reconstruction by Pristyn Care

Individuals who participate in athletic activities or engage in heavy-impact sports are affected by anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. These types of injuries not only limit motion but also increase the chances of having long-term joint problems. The process of replacing a damaged ACL with a graft is known as ACL reconstruction and it is a crucial surgical operation that can be done using either Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone (BPTB) or Hamstring Tendon Autograft.

Each method has its advantages and disadvantages. Pristyn Care, well-known for its state-of-the-art surgical skills, excels at these procedures, thus giving the best possible outcomes to its patients. Pristyn Healthcare provides higher recovery rates and patient satisfaction by combining advanced technology and customized plans, ultimately delivering premium care tailored to each patient’s needs. This commitment by Pristyn Healthcare guarantees that every patient receives the highest standard of care possible.

Overview of Techniques for ACL Reconstruction

ACL reconstruction refers to a surgical procedure aimed at substituting a ruptured ligament of the knee to attain its stability and function. This procedure is aimed to bring the patient back to his pre-injury level of activity with no instability or pain in the knee. The choice of graft in this process is critical because, in many senses, it determines the success of the surgery and the experience of the patient in recovery. Pristyn Care optimizes this process with surgical plans that are tailored to the unique physiology and lifestyle needs of each patient. Beyond surgical outcomes, it aligns with long-term health and activity goals for the patient. Moreover, the vision of Pristyn Care to integrate advanced technologies with surgical acumen gives a high quality of care to the patient through these reconstructive journeys.

Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone (BPTB) Grafts

BPTB graft is the most commonly performed graft used in ACL reconstructions because it is a robust and effective graft. It includes a central strip from the patellar tendon combined with small bone blocks of the patella and tibia. The bone ends of the graft allow quicker, more natural integration into the knee joint since they enable bone-to-bone healing, which is thought to be more stable and reliable compared with other grafts.

The Benefits of BPTB Graft

Chief amongst the numerous advantages of BPTB grafts is the fact that they heal fast within the host bone since the healing is bone to bone. As such, there are minimal concerns of the grafts’ slippage and the grafts give better initial stability, which is paramount during a time when patients are likely to get aggressive in getting back into high-demand activities. The patellar tendon, which is the strongest in the human body and structurally characteristic as well, broadens the overall durability and functionality of the graft.

Disadvantages of BPTB Graft

On the downside, the BPTB graft is not free from disadvantages too: anterior knee symptoms frequently are seen after surgical intervention and include the activity of kneeling or applying direct pressure on the knee. Secondly, the iliac bone block has potential donor site morbidity in terms of patella fractures or even tendonitis.

Patient Testimonials

Such mixed reviews should be found among patients with BPTB grafts when looking through reviews of the Pristyn Care. While some patients are satisfied with the stability of the graft with effective knee function restored, others keep emphasizing the difficulties not only with postoperative pain but also with the recovery time. These testaments put a reinforcement mark upon the need for a customized approach in surgical planning, which is a hallmark at Pristyn, ensuring that a meticulous approach is taken to the individual health profile and expectations in recovery for each patient.

Hamstring Tendon Autografts

Hamstring tendon autografts are commonly used in ACL reconstruction and involve the use of one or more tendons from the patient’s hamstring, typically the semitendinosus and sometimes the gracilis tendon. These tendons are removed through a small incision near the knee and prepared to serve as a replacement for the damaged ACL.

Advantages of Hamstring Grafts

Several reasons make hamstring grafts the preferable choice, and these start with the fact that the technique is less invasive; hence, it usually reduces postoperative pain in comparison to BPTB grafts. The incision site also heals more discretely, and patients often experience minimal harvest site morbidity, which usually allows for a more comfortable and quicker initial recovery phase. The hamstring tendons are very flexible and elastic, making them excellent in terms of mimicking the natural movements of the knee.

Disadvantages of Hamstring Grafts

However, hamstring tendons have their downsides. The most worrisome downside is the theory that proceeds with lower limb weakness. There is also a concern regarding the size and strength differences between the stretches of the tendon, which may complicate the surgery and lead to less knee stability after the reconstruction.

Customer Reviews From Pristyn Healthcare Testimonials

Common feedback in Pristyn healthcare reviews often highlights the satisfaction among patients who have undergone hamstring autografts. The main advantages noted include less noticeable scarring and reduced pain post-surgery. However, some Pristyn care reviews also point out that rehabilitation can be somewhat extended, as the hamstring needs additional strengthening post-procedure. These patient experiences, as documented in Pristyn healthcare reviews, emphasize the importance of selecting the appropriate type of graft based on individual activity levels and recovery objectives. This approach supports Pristyn Care’s commitment to providing personalized and effective treatment, as echoed in various Pristyn Care reviews.

Comparative Analysis

When comparing the efficacy of Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone (BPTB) and Hamstring Tendon autografts for ACL reconstruction, several factors must be considered, including stability, failure rates, recovery times, and long-term outcomes.

Stability and Failure Rates

The BPTB graft provides better initial stability because it is bone-to-bone healing, which most of the time is essential for athletes or high-demand individuals. Long-term research has shown that BPTB grafts have a slightly higher rate of developing osteoarthritis. Hamstring grafts show excellent stability and slightly more laxity than BPTB grafts, but generally with lower rates of failure compared to other autograft options.

Recovery Times

Patients with hamstring grafts will tend to recover more quickly in the first phase and thus have less postoperative pain that could significantly impact the early steps of rehabilitation. Grafts from the BPTB are more stable but usually cause discomfort for longer durations, as they are harvested invasively.

Long-Term Outcomes

Good long-term functional results and returns to activities have been shown with both types of grafts, although the actual type of graft may impact recovery speed and comfort.

Pristyn Care’s Approach

Pristyn Care’s expert surgeons carefully evaluate the individualized patient’s needs, lifestyle, and activity levels before selecting a graft to be used for that individual patient. This, therefore, fits perfectly into the principle of Pristyn Care with optimal balances for every patient in terms of stability, recovery time, and long-term health of the joint.

Role of Pristyn Care in ACL Reconstruction

Pristyn Care is one of such key players that ensures a smooth state of ACL reconstruction among the patients. The integrated care model involves steps from pre-surgery consults, where patients are evaluated and informed about the graft options, to the most recent surgical techniques that ensure highly accurate outputs. After surgery, follow-up services are administered by Pristyn Care to ensure that the patient is fully supported in their journey to recovery. The approach is fully engineered to minimize anxiety and ensure maximal comfort. Pristyn Care ensures that each patient is informed and taken care of, thereby increasing the satisfaction rate through constant communication and patient education. Their commitment is seen in the fine detail in their work and the accurate customization of every treatment plan to answer the needs of the patient.

Conclusion

It only underlines the distinctive characteristics and some advantages of BPTB and Hamstring Tendon autografts in ACL reconstruction. Each graft presents its own economic, biomechanical, and technical advantages and disadvantages, while the choice may depend on patient factors and lifestyle requirements. Pristyn Care further excels in making this very important decision with guidance from the experts and operability standards to ensure the best recovery. It advises all patients to go to Pristyn Care reviews and consult their specialists to know better about the available treatment options for them. Good Pristyn healthcare from a good pristyn healthcare reviews provider like Pristyn Care is of prime importance for good recovery and a healthy knee for life.
