one of the complications of fracture is malunion,
and that's what you have right there including poor healing.
One of the stages of a healing fracture is the callus formation stage which is the most prominent of all the healing stages because it's more visible. If the callus hasn't formed then sorry you will continue to treat pain and some other complications might result.
My advice to you is to get an x-ray done first that will give you a clear picture of your injure.

Thank you.

I really appreciate

Hmmmm, Givanas at Apapa!! Memories!! A company i co-founded with my brother supplied them diesel back in the days before my brother left the shores of this country.......The company gave us our much needed break as we were just starting out in the oil and gas industry........Time really flies.....

Stay strong!!!

Updated: My brother, who handled operations for our company saw this thread and confirmed to me that he had one or two run-ins with you. Your moniker Emeka Stanley is your real name and you were the procurement officer at Givanas. This life!!!! I expect you to be older, wiser, experienced and humble now .....

But who ask you his real name now??

Bizzybody

You win...Senior

Should I send my details so you celebrate your win for me?

Let me add my fair share to this
During my tertiary days..... They throw pure water on people during their birthday

I had never participated even tho it seems fun
But during my birthday... Days to it was told same Wil be done to me.... So I missed few weeks in school

To my surprise when I resume plenty bag of water was bought Infact I gave them smal cash too..... While during thier normal water throwing I was suddenly attacked too.... I felt bad.... So I decided to join them next coming
As some of the water stone hit me badly

While I join my first throw was a hard one... Unknowingly for me my hand had twist in the process..... As I thew the water should dislocated and i was down on the floor.... It later reset with a click sound

I didn't even anything or treat it..... As per street way na..... Boom a year after shoulder started dislocating on it own

I did test... X ray n all....bone were correct was told it cartilage.... It takes very long to heal on it own unless for surgery..... I have been managing the hand for a number of years now

If only I had taken care of it the day it happen
Learnt ma lesson a very hard way

EmekaStanley:
Around middle of November 2018, I had an accident with a scooter I had bought to ease my transportation to and from Apapa where Givanas, a company I worked with at that time is situated.

The scooter was a life saver for me considering the state of Apapa road at that time.

As a result of the accident which was as a collision with a distant-minded person crossing the road, I fractured my radius, had deep scratches on my shoulder and face.

I was rushed to a local orthopedic who wore me a cast on my arm to immobilize it.

At that time, I was actively seeking to leave Givanas, so I saw Jagal vacancy for the post of a ‘buyer’. I took the test online, scored high and was invited for a face to face interview.

While at home taking some off days due to the injury, I attended Jagal interview with the cast and injury marks on my face.

I arrived Ikoyi, the headquarters of Jagal, met Ian Moodley, the then Group Supply Chain Manager, who was to interview me.

Ian Moodley looked beyond my injuries, interviewed me properly and told me he was going to hire me, and he did.

He just referred me to the Group HR then, Daniel Ayscough to formalize it.

By the end of that day, I received an official email from Daniel informing me that I have been hired, and asked me to resume by the second week of January, which was enough time for me to notify Givanas that I was quitting.

I immediately sent an email to Givanas informing them of my resignation, went to work few times with the injury and that was it.

There are lots of things I could pull out from this writeup including Jagal's penchant for recognizing talent irrespective of a physical condition that some employers could use as an excuse not to hire someone or my own part of not being discouraged to attend the interview because of my injury.

Now, here is the purpose of this write up.

I was supposed to carry that cast for at least 2 months or even more than, to enable my radius heal well but I removed it the week I resumed at Jagal.

Almost 6 years down the line, close to 4 years after I left Jagal, I have to wear the cast again for that same injury I had.

Apparently the bone joined but didn’t heal properly. All the pains that I should have borne 6 years ago, I am bearing some of them now.

Surprisingly, throughout that time, I was carrying weights at the gym, though I noticed that there was a particular gym programme (which was my favorite) that I couldn’t do without pains in the arm.

That was when I got convinced that my arm has not healed completely.

Today, anytime I go for massage of the arm, I feel real pain, and thoughts keep running through my mind. But, I have serious life lessons I have learnt from this.

One: There is no shortcut to healing. The only exception here is if it is a miracle because I believe in miracles.

If you are meant to receive a particular treatment routine, please stick to your treatment until you are healed completely, confirmed by qualified personnel.

If you abandon your treatment, there’s a high chance you’ll meet the ailment in the nearest future. It could be a form of relapse or something.

Two: Do not postpone pains. Pains are part of living, and every stage of life seems to have its own pains or place of discomfort. Sometimes it could be a form of progress. Unless that, do not postpone pains, they have a way of coming back.

It could have been better for me if I had borne all these massage and cast pains 6 years ago than now. I mean, it is a distraction for me at the moment.

Thirdly but not the least, your health is more important than any job. Take care of yourself.

In any job, no one is irreplaceable. Even the business collapsing due to your absence could be a way of your replacement in the grand scheme of things.


Finally, life is beautiful, I personally don’t want to be dealing with things I should have dealt with years ago, No I don't.

Do you?

I would treat this as a personal note to self. This was the same mistake I made in 2009 and till date, I'm still bearing the cross. A permanent fix is possible, but I'm too scared to venture. The fact that I would be immobile and helpless for months scares me.

Nice write up. Are you being treated properly now for the malunion or non union? The bandage I saw does not in any way show the proper way such old injury should be treated. Otherwise, ........we will hear chapter 3 of this story .

You're healed ijn Amen

Great.
Quick healing, bro

Well written.

EmekaStanley:
Thank you

You are welcome

No short cut in life

EmekaStanley:
Names are meant to be identified.

If I'm writing real life stories, I mention names

You are still not right. The fact that you are ready to release your privacy does not make it right for others. If names are meant to be quoted and everyone starts quoting your name on the internet, how many will you be able to respond to? It is only public people who can have this privilege and that still does not mean their names can be quoted anyhow to prevent libel. Those men are not public servants, they are staff of the company and belong to the company. Why didn't Jagal publish all employees' names because names are meant to be identified

Do the right thing and remove their names. Tell those who quoted you to remove it. It was not necessary. Apply discretion to your actions in a public forum.

Rule 10:
10. Don't violate the privacy of any people e.g. by posting their private pics, info, or chats without permission.

My question is, what is being done right now to the injury? Was the bone re-broken and set properly? Did they only bandage the arm? Many parts of the write-up were unnecessary. I had to skip to the end for the important bits.

And most importantly proper diagnosis is better than treatment. Any MRI/CTScan done? Any follow up checkup done? Procedures abd processes are important… but always lacking in Naija

ProudNigerian01:
Very educative post, Thank you Op.

Meanwhile everyone should take note of
Christopher Orji's message:

"Let your character preach the Gospel of Repentance and Remission of sin to all"

Who is Christopher Orji,pls?

See as person just dey throw names around . Heal well, you write well too.

CJStarz:

Who is Christopher Orji,pls?

EmekaStanley:
You didn't read the story well.

Already joined, if it didn't join, I wouldn't be able to lift weights.

There's a slight swelling around the area that pains when massaged strongly.

With that, it flattens and heals well

It seems you don't want to listen.

You either have a non-union or mal-union.
More likely a mal-union from what you describe.

Unfortunately casting will not help you.

Not sure who you have been seeing-- seems like a quack!

Yep. No mention of MRI, CT Scan et all

Speedy recovery

That's a very nice one and very informative. Thanks for the update. Wishing you speedy recovery this time around.
