Supps for faster bone healing?

nkira · 06-12-2009, 10:08 PM

One of my gym friends met with an accident & his finger is broken! The guy who banged into him fled the scene.

Since he's finger is fractured lifting is out of question, Bone healing is a slow process.

I was wondering if there are any supps that might help in healing the bone faster, I did google it but got the regular stuff life watch calcium intake n eat green veggies.....ect ect...

So are there any supps that help heal bones faster?

His diet is clean, he already takes the regular stuff like creatine, whey protein, fish oil ect....

PS:- Mods, I think I should have posted this one in "Supplements", My mistake.

Multivitamin and Calcium supplement. 1000mg/day should be more than enough, assuming he is getting more via his diet. Make sure to keep hydrated and work around the injury, time will take care of the rest.

Before doing anything else, I think it is good idea to do surgery to put those fractured bones in correct place. So that it can heal correctly and won't turn into funny shaped finger when it is healed.
Just my opinion

What do you mean? If it is fractured then it is bad. You have to put them correctly before it heals. Otherwise, once healed it is very hard to fix.

I meant that the fracture is not that severe, so the doc said surgery is not required, it's in the cast thought, it's as if he's giving the finger to everyone

No offence....

Good idea..cast will support his finger from bending toward wrong direction while it is healing. If he keeps showing that finger to people, someone might break his other fingers.

I actually broke a knuckle when I was a teen, Never had surgery or went to therapy (which was adviced by my doc). I lament that now, finger seems to look shorter and Its very sensitive, any type of punch ill take hurts my knuckle. So yea chobby makes sense.

I say we snap his fingers apart, reset them without any anesthesia, give him a lollipop and a glass of milk and tell him to screw.

nkira · 06-14-2009, 10:08 PM

Jugge, I guess breaking n snapping is your idea of having fun with people, oh yeah & that abusing too

I did mention that he did went to the doc...did I not?

And that fools been fucking around the country side with the broken finger.

no actually, sticking bamboo chutes in one's fingernails really appealed to me.

As for fucking around with a broken finger, there might actually be some medical ramifications and permanent disfiguration if not treated.

I'll try my best to tell him.....I did went to him supp(he runs one) shop & he was out riding on bike! Anyways it's his finger <Shrugs>
