"Jay Durias look-alike" aka Dr. Braganza is just a resident doctor so you can't expect him to know the "alternative method" in your case. But Dr. Syquia?? he's like super genius na and super gwapo pa [gwapo part: wala lang gusto ko lang sabihin as if good looks is important in being a good ortho doctor haha =p]

its not my fault the friggin' thermoplast took so long to soften... and besides, si sir joel narin nagsabi na 2 years na siyang di gumagawa ng splint... i have yet to blog about that and my crazy DR.S fanaticism... mejo mahirap lang talaga ksing magtype... but I'm quite sure, even at my current condition, mas mabilis pa rin ako magtype sayo!!!! wahahah!!! :D

aww, you poor thing. XP How you describe your injury sounds so professional - mentioning terms like vasogenic blah and stuff. (well, you ARE taking a pre-med course.)

on the other hand, the next time I'm wounded I plan to exclaim, "Oh! The PAIN!" like the English-speaking Miaka from Animax's rerun of Fushigi Yuugi yesterday.

Lol. It wouldn't be surprising if I told you that we are actually taught how to describe injuries and stuff. (Haha, cheat) Like how we should write down a patient's history when we interview them. From the chief complaint, History of Present Illness, the exact mechanism of injury, symptoms to the precise description of the pain - it's onset, location, intensity and stuff like that. Its just like being my own PT, or should I say being my own patient? Ah, whatever.

No, if you were to have an injury yourself - like say a fracture, you should exclaim -- "Oh! The SHARP, SEVERE, INTOLERABLE Pain!" or if its a muscle pull -- "Oh! The CRAMPING, DULL, ACHING Pain!" a nerve stuble -- "Oh! The SHARP, SHOOTING, RADIATING Pain!" (Uhm, okay, I'll stop now. =P) Just tell them you just so happen to have a knack for adjectives and that you ARE taking an english major. hehe. :D

...very informative. XD Yes, I'll use those adjectives.
