Hi All

Is it bad to lengthen every 2 hours?

I did that a few days ago, and I found it pretty tolerable.

Wonder if it is bad for our tissue?

I think to make it less painful I will lengthen every3 hours.

WHy so fast, you ask me.

So I have a more comfortable sleep (no lengthening near sleep time!)

How did you guys lengthen!

Hi

i have never done lengthening so I cannot say but everything I have read says if you lengthen too much too soon the bone will separate and wont mend together anymore.

How much total are you lengthening per day?  I was lengthening 1mm per day broken down into 3 sessions last one at 7-8PM.  My sleep was horrible but even when I stopped lengthening it took days before sleep got better so not sure if lengthening in smaller chunks will help.

This is too fast. Do a session every 4-5 hours.

It doesn't really matter how often you lengthen.  In Beijing they recommended that we lengthen 4 times a day, but one guy said that his doctor at Cedars-Sinai told him to lengthen once a day, turning 2mm and then backwards 1mm.

Doc says its ok to do 2 hourly, just see what works for me

don't do more than 0.66mm per day.

if you do more than this then you have not learnt patience. and do not understand leg lengthening.

if you can do this you will have a very nice stay during lengthening. '

because in doing this you mentally resign yourself to just allowing your body to take the time it needs to heal, instead you are trying to race through it. you will not get through this surgery any quicker. you will be in much more pain, and you will take the same time or MORE TIME.

and once scar tissue builds up it is permanent!!!!!!!! every single micro tear(to soft tissue ie ligaments) that occurs on a day by day basis will add up and catch up to you in the long run and it will inhibit your ability to stretch later.

if you build up scar tissue now in the early phases you will reach your elastic limit sooner.

YES !!! I thought about that!!!!

And Dr Fahri also said!!!

When you lengthen too fast, you take longer to CONSOLIDATE!

Bingo, you are very smart bro; we figured this out before the Doc tells us.

Where did you get this information from ?

Why will there be scar tissue? Anyway I am taking Korean anti-scar tissue drugs. So I will have less scar tissue

I will now note down the amount of painkillers and pain rating throughout the day.

And I will adjust and see, if I should lower down to 0.5 mm/0.75 mm alternate days.
