Fractured foot, Physiotherapy
Age & Gender:
Male
Condition Presented:
On the 7th of April 2007 I had a severe bike accident. I was not wearing my protective gear and flipped my motorcycle. I was rushed off to hospital where I was heavily sedated for the pain.
The next morning I had my first of three surgeries in which the wound was cleaned. The next two surgeries were for skin grafting. After three weeks in hospital and three weeks on crutches the wound was still not healed.
Area Affected:
Ankle
TimeIllnessBeforePhotizo:
3 Weeks.
DurationOfPhotizoTreatment:
I was introduced to Hannie Strobos and the healing of LED light. Before I stared with the treatment the wound had trouble healing because of the severe damage to my soft tissue and bone. The 1st photo is of my ankle before treatment with the Photizo was started.As you can see the wound was spreading and all the applications I applied didn’t seemed to help much. This photo was taken on the 05 June 2007
We started treatment on a daily basis in 5 times a week, the next photo was taken on the 12th of July 2007 almost a month later and the improvement can clearly be seen.
Not just at the wound itself but the whole skin grafted area improved dramatically. There were two places were the skin didn’t grow back and at the 2nd photo you can see that the smaller wound was almost completely healed. In August I stopped treatment and I could see that the healing progress of my wound was not at the same rate as it was whilst treating with the Photizo.The 3rd photo was taken on the 20th of October 2007.
TreatmentPerformed:
Self
ConditionAfterPhotizo:
I presume if I did not stop in August it would have been completely healed in September.
My foot was healed in November and I would like to thank Hannie for the consultation combined with the treatment in helping me with a speedy recovery.
