Could you please post and sticky a list of the most common non-obvious ways people slip/hurt legs accidentally during LL?

[zaozari]

If this is done, may I suggest it's a more "comprehensive " list, with all risks and complications, maybe organised by degree of severity or/and frequency?

There are posts that have it already allmost completed, but it seems not convenient copy pasting and doing it myself without knowing the moderator opinion (and I cannot stick anything of course). I also don't know much about this topic yet, for example don't know what "compartment syndrome" is, and if it may be treated or not.

Sometimes there are very important issues that would make such a more organized/researched list very useful for users/members, for example until yesterday I didn't know that surgery for elongation of the Aquiles tendon is frequently needed after elongation of tibias (and that it costed 5000 euros in 2016).

This is so not only for LL pretenders but also all others, to avoid being caught in bad surprise, calm them and for example help us when consulting doctors and evaluate their approach, as well as better forecast a suplement of extra money if corrections/complications are not included in the cost announced.

Meanwhile this post was published and already has very good sistematic content with scientific sources included:

May I suggest
1) that the moderator move this one there
2) the person that posted in the other does not include only complications and risks with Precice but of LL surgery in general, specififying, if relevant the method (for the most, biogical/anatomy/challenges to the body are the same)
3) Of course, as THIS (here) original topic is very specific about what may hurt/sleeps legs, include that explicitly.
4) Stick the topic.
5) With time we even will be able to improve it, by corresponding problems to parts of the body, if it's treatable or not, etc. And of course classified primarily by PRE/preparation, DURING and AFTER LL, including known possible long term dangers (osteoporosis?? Callus bone more prone to break? Long term useful supplements, like possibly glucosamine at the articulations level?, etc.)

Er maybe my post was badly worded but like what situations in the kitchen/shower/bedroom/etc are the most common situations where the LL patient thinks the movement is safe but then accidentally slips?

Ok,sorry
