    Anyone else watching?

    I just had to stop watching for a bit as I can't stand any sort of putting limbs/bones etc back in to the correct position *feels ill*

    I've got in on in the background but not really watching, but I happened to look up just as they were putting that guy's knee back into position. Ouch... >.<

    The young man and his grand ma made me cry. So touching.

    :D:D:D someone trumping in the waiting room. I needed a good laff today and that did the trick.

    I had to fast forward the bit when the toe nail was being removed but did the Dad really film it being done?! I was only watching with one eye...and it was moving fast:D

    So sad :cry:

    Plus it's so raw for me at the moment as my own Nan died in hospital and was surrounded by those who she loved & god knows we love(d) her soooooooo much.

    Watching on catch up. I feel so sorry for the dislocated knee guy. Not sure how he is supposed to 'relax'.

    Did I imagine a loud snapping sound as the knee went back into place?:eek:

    I really feel for the poor guy who got randomly punched in the face. What is the matter with some people? Why on earth would anyone do that?

    I love Ho and his Grandma. His description of the essential English words she learnt made me laugh out loud.

    That's very sad CL - I'm sorry for your loss.

    That was very moving. What a lovely grandson.

    Brilliant episode again with the facial surgeon and his magic thumb, that hideous kneecap relocation, the funny girls in the waiting room, Tyrell ignoring his Dad (I do hope he comes to appreciate the importance of family history before it's too late) and Ho and his grandma.

    No that is very normal and usually louder than that as it bone hitting bone. But it has to go back before it can even start to heal, so sooner is better than later. Also the pain of dislocation goes away instantly it snaps back, leaving just a dull ache.

    Then they strap it up to stop it popping back out again until it heals and strengthens. The muscles and ligaments get stretched when it's dislocated so it could easily pop out again if not held in place until they heal and shorten into their original place. Some never shorten properly again and so with some people they keep putting the same joint out.

    I cant speak for a dislocated knee but my son has had a dislocated elbow three times .The pain may lessen but it sure isnt a dull ache once back in .He was on strong painkillers and very sore for a week at least .
    The muscles and ligaments have been wrenched and pulled and are very painful post procedure .

    My favourite episode so far. You know it takes the pee that some celebrities are virtually worshipped, like world class footballers, when world class surgeons like that facial surgeon go without any recognition. He has a far far more important and crucial job.

    Also enjoyed the scene in the waiting room with someone constantly farting :D

    I was emotional.....But I thought she had died then and there.

    I'm sure the Family Tree Dad took a photo after the Nail had been removed.:cool:

    And again, another patient looking different when talking to camera after the event: the Guy that was Punched, Nicholas.

    How in the world did he manage that? :confused:

    I do wonder about the Trauma Team. When they mentioned a team of twenty I wondered at what point it goes from organized to chaos?

    Well if each has a job and sticks to it, chaos should never happen. Just procedure.
