I Fractured My Pelvis In July And The Doctor Says It

I fractured my pelvis, will i be able to play football?

Consult you doctor or medical professional before resuming physical activity after injury, This information is provided as advise and information not diaganosis.

Well, bones will usually heal even after they have been severly damaged, as long as circulatory supply and the cellular components of the endosteum and the periosteum survive. The repair process can take from 4 months to over a year following a fracture.
The rate of healing is related to the severity of the fractures. If your talking hairline fractures, with rest and proper nutrition they might very well heal up in time.
The pelvis supports the lower body, large muscle groups are attached to it as well as the largest bones in the body. The lower body asks alot of the pelvis.

Pelvic fractures are refered to as Unstable or Stable injury.

Unstable pelvic fractures occur less often but are associated with significant pelvic organ trauma and shock. I will just list the types of unstable pelvic fractures.
Malgaigne
Open book
Bucket handle
Straddle
If you were diaganosed with one of these, I'd say find a winter or spring sport you like....sorry

Stable injury
Rami fracture- are located @ both the Ischial ramus and pubic ramus, and are considered stable.

Avulsion fracture - this occurs when a small chip of bone is pulled off @ the origin or insertion site of a tendon.

You have a better change of quick recovery with small stable fractures.
Depending on your specific injuries, it could be anywhere on that line of 4 months to over a year.

Take care of youself and allow for rest, follow your health care providers instructions and it might be possible.

It really depends on a great deal of factors that this far out are hard to answer. The question you asked "Will I be able to practice?" is a valid question but your timing is off, youll get a much better answer from you doctor in a few months, my guess late May early July. Another x-ray then they can assess how you are healing at that time.

When a woman gives birth naturally, do her hips/pelvis have to break to get the baby out?

No they don't. Don't worry.

The relaxin your body makes causes the joints to loosen during pregnancy in preparation for birth. This is part of the reason women develop the characteristic "waddle" late in pregnancy. This is necessary because it allows the hips to spread a bit to help bare the load created by the baby and also makes it possible for the fixed as well as the ball and socket joints to unhinge just a bit during the pushing phase without causing any real damage to the joints. (Or be nearly as uncomfortable as one of those joints coming unhinged or misaligned without the relaxin, believe me.)

After the birth, the joints slip back into place and slowly tighten back to their usual positions over the next few weeks as the body stops producing relaxin and the existing hormone is released from the body.

Can a pelvic ultrasound break a hymen?

There are 2 types of pelvic u/s, transabdominal and endovaginal. Endovaginal will break a hymen as the probe is inserted into the vagina. Depending on the situation, you can request they do only a transabdominal which is not as good. Your doctor can also order an MRI depending on why you are getting a pelvic US in the first place

Good luck

Paranoid after visiting prostitute about getting HIV?

Ok this 23 July, after the break up with my girlfriend I visited a prostitute in New Delhi, India. She gave me oral (without a condom) and than we did vaginal sex, with a condom. We were at it for about 20mins and I did not ejaculate into the condom (if thats a factor) than I left to catch a flight After the act I took off the condom using its wrapper as a make shift glove and examined it, it showed no signs of tearing.

I have taken all the precautions that I could think of :-
1. Using protection
2. Only superficial kissing, no deep french kissing
3. I did not touch her vaginal area to avoid getting her fluids on me.
4. I only readjusted the condom 2-3 times and wiped my hands on the bed sheets immidiately.

I know that this is probally paranoia but I keep having nightmares about improbable situations like getting HIV via that unprotected oral she gave me, or her vaginal fluids getting on my pelvic area or underwear and as I had a flight I wouldn't bathe for a day and it may have somehow worked its way into my blood stream (is that possible?). I will get a test done in 6 weeks from said date. Than after 3 months to put my mind to ease. And in future not have sex with prostitites. Just I pray to god that I didn't get HIV.
