I work with a lot of badly injured people and my two pieces of advice based on my experience is to be committed to your pt and to practice mindfulness as a way to reduce the effects of pain. Pain disrupts sleep and concentration, and is really fucking exhausting.
Any advice for someone who broke bones that need surgery to fix?
Broke my ankle and leg in 3 places and I’m getting surgery tomorrow. Idk how to feel or what to expect.
