He should rent his device out to “transgender” men, who have the same issue but are more politically correct so they are allowed to mutilate their own bodies.
Somebody somewhere decided that hospital strength cough syrup should be purple and have the consistency of wood glue.
The actors for MASH had more credibility than some of the doctors at bomb secure.
Yuck.
The stuff tastes like I imagine whale barf would.
It is hideous to a t.
Whale Barf is worth a fortune, it’s used in the perfume industry ,no idea what for mind.
They sweeten it with soda pop and candy. Remember Trayvon?
The orange lunger was a nice touch.
“What hump?”
“Blucher!”
Who is he threatening? do it!
The problem is the pain receptors in his brain and not the nerves in his hand.
I’d give him a high five for the political statement though.
Sadly, this is what so many liberals believe is fair, when it comes to healthcare.
No. The mods will cut you off immediately.
Before my spinal surgery I suffered a pinch nerve in my neck. Sometimes the pain would be so bad that I’d put my whole arm in a big bowl of ice. The pain of the ice water canceled out the pain of the screaming nerve and gave me some relief.
The only reason I took amputation out of the list of possibilities is that it wouldn’t stop the pinched nerve problem at my neck. There is a procedure where they cut and cauterize the nerve root itself and I begged for this procedure. “But it’ll paralyze your arm!”
“I don’t care.”
Thankfully, the spinal surgery took the pressure off the nerve and it’s alright now. But don’t discount how bad it can be. And don’t discount the lengths people will go to if the pain is bad enough.
An interviewer recently asked Alice Cooper what a “shock rock” performer would have to do to shock an audience nowadays the way he shocked audiences in the ‘70’s. He replied, “ you really can’t shock people anymore. You would literally have to chop your arm off onstage. And you can only do that twice.”
This is probably his great, great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather.
Think that is bad , last year a guy in Tulsa chopped his own head off with a homemade guillotine.
Big Walking Dead fan, huh?
Unfortunately for him, he is likely unaware of the existance of phantom pain seemingly felt in no longer existing limbs.
He had the pain while the hand was still attached. The sad part is he may have had relief with simple physical therapy.
I had moderate to severe pain in both hands and ended up getting surgery on the nerves. The relief was temporary. Later, an exercise physiologist showed me some stretching exercises; the results are amazing.
