Broken collarbones - Off-topic

Not really the place for medical research, but works boring me to tears so I thought I'd throw this out there.
Broke my collarbone a few years back and it never really recovered. It give me massive grief this time of year once the weather turns. Anyone got any ideas what I can do about it?

Go to the doctor.

I have the same issue albeit with my ribs. Barring going to the doctor.....I usually just get drunk. Works every time.

A proctologist should be able to help you.

Heat. old injuries really hate the cold.
Try heatpatches or tiger balm. Also, as was suggested before, a proctologist can help you as well.

Ask your proctologist to apply Tiger Balm. That should sort you right out.

Isn't that similar to deep heat?
Been to the doctors this morning and they've said the only course of action other than permanent pain relief is to re break it and put a pin in!

Re-break it? Hold on.
Are you telling us that you didn't see a doctor when it originally happened? Because it sounds like your collarbone healed wrong. If it did, they're right, re-breaking it is the only way.

"Never really recovered" and "I'm an idiot because I broke my bloody collarbone and didn't see a doctor" are two entirely different things.

No, when I did it I was 17, they said there wasn't a great deal they could do with it at the time as the bone was to small to operate on, they put it in a really stiff sling that was somewhat like a removable cast to.hold it still, but every time I moved or was jolted the bone would move, so it took around 3 months to finally start fusing and another couple to heal fully, left me with a huge lump in ky shoulder where it should be, now the bone sits lower and further back ( or at least a big chunk of it does)

I read "never really recovered" as I never bothered to get it looked at (which in my case with my ribs is completely applicable)

Irenew? True or fake???

Hello,
So does anyone have purchased the Irenew bracelet?
It claims.giving strength /balance via some sort of new technology and just placed and order and im.starting to think it is fake but not sure if anyone have tried it leaving feedback would be great.
Thanks folks.

It's a scam, and work by placebo. I tried it, and it makes you think it works. The trick where you have your hands in the back, and someone pushes down, at first you don't know how the person will push down, so your body loses balance, but the second time you know what force to expect and your body counteracts it.

I think a funny moment would be talking to someone online called sassy...
Planning to meet at a bar.
And seeing a big fat biker walk in with a "sassy is here" shirt.
We'll this isn't funny, this is awkward: I was beating off, and my cousin walked in while I was at the point of now return and so I couldn't stop so it was probably the most awkward 5 seconds of my life. He closed the door, and I acted like nothing happened.

Thoughts and Prayers to Colorado

I just wanted to take a minute to say my thoughts and prayers go out to anyone in and around Aurora Colorado. I'm not sure if anyone on XDA may have been in the theater or near it, but God bless all that were.

M_T_M closed the last thread saying it would lead to gun control arguments or something, although nothing like that was ever mentioned. He asked nobody create a new thread about it so just a heads up he will probably close this one too. That said, I have been thinking about the families and those affected all day. I have a friend that just moved to CO and first thing I did this morning was call him because I was not sure what part he had moved to exactly.
Edit: Wow at your speed test, that's amazing.
If it needs to be closed all is well.. I just felt like I should do something. The thing I hate most about this life is that stuff like this happens and there's usually nothing you can do about it.

Believe me we appreciate the sentiment.
I was going to allow it and monitor for any trolling/inappropriate response however I must respect M_T_Ms previous decision and follow suit.
Of course we are all deeply sympathetic and our thoughts go out to those affected, however I would not like to see such a poignant and well intentioned thread ruined by trolls.
Once again though, thankyou for the sentiment.

Thanks for the video. Friday's almost here!
I didn't realize they put the power button on the top left. That's a weird spot to put it...I do like that they put the proximity sensors on the left side of the front. That is a major design flaw on my s3 at the moment (every time I'm on a phone call and I try to swipe down notifications, screen will turn off since it registers my thumb.)

This was the same problem with the EVO 4G LTE. I'd always end up tripping the proximity sensor when I swiped down the notification bar during calls and what not. I like the new position, and it adds a little more industrial aspect to the overall look of the handset.

Because of the curved back, I'm guessing it's a bajillion times more comfortable to hold in your hand, no ?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
explicit, how is that battery holding up?
Also, it might be a network issue, but my LTE would have trouble with incoming texts that are more than 160 chars. So I would receive the 2nd text first, then the initial text would come in second. (When one long text gets broken down into 2). I was wondering if the One did this too.

Do long distance relationships work????

Hey guys.
I am very curious!!! Because of this girl but she lives in another city that she wants to be in a relationship but I'm like "babygurl hold up, hell nah"
But then I was wondering if it would work or it's just a waste of time???
Not you again.
While only you can truly know if it can work, my experience is no. I say this not because of any experience with a long distance relationship, of which I have had none, of the experiences I've had with regular relationships. I've been married 5 years. Only cause I'm in her life and she is in mine for all this time, had it worked. We are social creatures, we need intimacy and touch for a relationship to last any significant amount of time.
Depends on the both of your abilities.
"What's my problem? You."
I never understood why people even think long distance relationship is even a chance. I mean... Why? How will it ever work? You will not see her in months, that's not the idea of relationship. No, it will not work.
Sent from my teddy bear
My relationship isn't necessarily long distance, but it is. We live an hour away from eachother & we both have jobs with completely different hours. I works days & he works nights. We see eachother every other weekend & talk on the phone as much as we can. We have ups & downs like every other couple. Been to together for two & half happy years still going & we are shopping for our first house together
You should know, you're very cool ya know.

Listen to the 7th son of gawd my dear alan.
How do you want to define your relationship and what do you want it to consist of?
Cuddling up watching a movie, dome at the movie theater, long walks, waking up together, looking into each other's eyes over a romantic dinner, intercourse, sharing hobbies and experiences... that all requires a shorter distance (even shorter for the less fortunate).
However, if talking on the phone and occasional visits are all you need, and you're both fine if it never changes, go for it.
Remember, all relationships prior to your first marriage are practice for that marriage. Don't let things get serious that don't need to be. If you feel you're going to end up marrying someone, be cautious and completely certain before letting it get serious. Otherwise, it's all for fun. If it won't at least be fun, don't do it.

Ahhhh @VeryCoolAlan. Do you want the answer you want, the answer a joker would give you, or my answer, otherwise known as the truth?
I'll put mine here for the sake of history.
If someone says it will and it does, then they were right.
If someone says it won't and it doesn't, then they were right.
Neither of the above people knew the truth. They just gave an opinion which is irrelevant to the actual outcome.
It may work. It may not.
If you don't try, you'll never find out. It may be beautiful and last your whole life, or it may be torturous and cause you heartbreak and agony.
It's your risk.
It's your choice.
