I was just wondering if I can get some input here.. Has anyone here ever underwent surgery before? How was it? What was it like? I am currently contemplating whether or not I should have surgery for a torn ligament in my knee. It's a pretty important ligament and I would love to have the knee back to 100% but I don't know if I should do it. My main worry is what if it gets worse? Also.. I don't want to have to use a catheter to relief myself.
acl reconstruction is a pretty straight forward surgery.
Help me to escape from this existence
I yearn for an answer... can you help me?
I'm drowning in a sea of abused visions and shattered dreams
In somnolent illusion... I'm paralyzed

I would really appreciate your guts if you go for this surgery.
Few days back I saw Tooth cavity on one of side tooth.There is no pain,no black spots but I am very scared going to doctors.Only few days left to Ramzan ,If it will start paining during fast what I will do then.
You should go to the dentist sis! I had a friend who went through something similar and he prolonged it and for some reason his breath was stinky one day I forced him to go to the dentist now he is fine!
Thanks for ur input bro pathos, can I request to not want the catheter? and bro cbdullahi I know what you're talking about ok we all that particular surgery haha.
Root canels aren't all that bad. Its just getting the initial freezing and enduring the annoying drilling. After everything is done, the tooth won't hurt as the nerve is gone. May get a sort of ghost pain but the hard part is the process of the root canel. The whole having your mouth open for a long period of time.
Not getting your tooth tended to is bound to cause you more problem in the long run, including pain or worse, decay setting into the gums or into the bone.
Thank you dqsunday for your reply.Now I will not go to dentist until my tooth starts paining.Only positive thing that my breath is not stinky at all.
I am dead I Think doctor will forced me to go for root canal.I heard they inject medicine in gums.
Ramzan is ahead only 18 days left

it was nothing... just an aprox 6 inches surgical cut on the lower part of the leg to insert an aprox 3 inches plate with the help of 6 screws to join broken leg bone 'fibula'... and another aprox 3 inches cut on the ankle of the same leg to join the broken parts of the ankle bone into one (i dont know what the bone is called) with the help of a one and a half inch screw and a hook
didn't end up here...
after a year both the procedures were repeated but this time to remove all that 'construction' material...
wanna take a look of stuff that was once part of my leg...? 1234.jpg

My upper 8th tooth (wisdom tooth) is causing problem Its growing towards my cheek.I visited the dentist and the only option she gave me was extraction.
Have you discussed with your doctor what the risks and benefits are of the surgery, and the pros and cons are of leaving it to heal by itself? Do you know whether the operation might need further operations in future, or its likely to only require one operation?

But i had another option
Same here Cavity is in my wisdom tooth.
I cannot escape sister.....
At the end I have to go to the dentist for root canal.
You better go with extraction instead of root canal,sis.Wisdom tooth is a spare tooth in your mouth and if it starts aching,you better have it removed.Root canal often start aching after 2-3 years and then you have to go with extraction with much more pain.

dentist laughed at me.
Lol,my sister is even more great coward than you.She wasn't even agree to sit on the chair but then,she have her 4 teeth removed because of her braces process needed that.
