G-nail/Betzbone : Clicking pain - Help?
« on: March 12, 2025, 08:36:55 AM »

Hey all,

I'm currently in week 3 of femur lengthening using g-nail. Up until now clicking was relatively easy and painless, but the past few days it has been increasingly painful, to the point where it's become quite stressful.

The only really tip I was given was to relax, and it worked quite well initially to make sure I don't go too fast and create pain. But now even we all the relaxation in the world, it just hurts !

As I'm writing this I just finished my morning clicking session and it lasted 42min for the right side and 17min for the left side. and 10mi later it still hurts from all the twisting ! Now I don't even care about the time tbh, it could be 1 hour each leg, but even when taking my time it still hurts like a b*tch.

So here are my questions:
- Do you guys have any tips/tricks to make it hurt less ?
- Does it get better or worse ? Intuitively, as the muscles get even more stretched with time, I feel it's going to get worse...

If you have any experience with this please help a brother out.
Hopefully this thread can also be a good resource for future G-nail/Betzbone patients.
