Knee locked!

Posted Saturday September 19, 2015Friday March 27, 2020 KusaharaPosted in Miscellaneous Blog Posts

My knee popped the other day as I was casually riding. Now I can’t fully extend it. Seems like the meniscus, a component in the knee joint between the thigh and shin bones, is pinched in a strange location. My right knee has gone through ACL and PCL rupture and reconstruction, and it is rather […]

Ankle mystery solved

Posted Thursday March 12, 2015Friday March 27, 2020 KusaharaPosted in Miscellaneous Blog Posts

My left ankle has been weird since last August. And I haven’t done much about it as there were enough things to keep me busy besides bike riding. But the lingering pain finally made me revisit the hospital to get it sorted. The worst case scenario I had in my mind was that an immediate surgery […]

Story of troubles on the last day of the year

Posted Tuesday December 31, 2013Friday March 27, 2020 KusaharaPosted in Miscellaneous Blog Posts

I came to a stop right by a tram station as I was driving to a hospital. Then came a tram car, onto which a lady with a guide dog boarded. Seats were occupied, and she had a hard time finding a rail to hold on to after climbing the steps from the door of […]

Decapoison

Day 1 Fishy Peperoncino & Chicken Salad. Taste awesome and look healthy! Day 10 Feels like my guts are being minced. Body weight going down, good things go first. Food poisoning sucks. It was apparently a bad idea to keep boiled chicken in the fridge for two days, then consume it on salad without reheating. […]

Slam, snap, shatter

Posted Monday January 7, 2013Friday March 27, 2020 KusaharaPosted in Miscellaneous Blog Posts

A little while ago, I unintentionally slammed a table with a lot of energy and ended up snapping a bone in my left hand. Too much excitement is a bad thing. This 3D CT image from the palm side shows the shattered 5th metacarpal bone, the one at the root of the pinkie. The side […]

Back pain diary

Posted Thursday October 11, 2012Friday March 27, 2020 KusaharaPosted in Miscellaneous Blog Posts

Now the sudden autumn thunder and rain are over, but I haven’t been riding much this week due to a lower back pain. It may be because of too much desk work, too little sleep, slacking in crunches, practicing on my bike nonetheless, or probably all of the above. It was even interfering with my […]

Minor bone fractures

Posted Thursday August 16, 2012Friday March 27, 2020 KusaharaPosted in Miscellaneous Blog Posts

I went to the hospital yesterday since I was worried about the injury from the dirt jumping accident the other day. That is, since I was worried for by many people, fortunately. So here is the verdict – bingo. There were slight fractures in the 6th and 7th ribs on the left. The doctor said […]

Alumni dirt jumping

Posted Monday August 13, 2012Friday March 27, 2020 KusaharaPosted in Miscellaneous Blog Posts

Just hit the dirt trails for the first time in a while. I had been thinking about it, then the night before on Saturday, I bumped into old BMX friends I hadn’t seen for a while, and they totally talked me into it. So there were Mush and Takuma at the trails following that night, […]

Back in skatepark

Posted Sunday January 8, 2012Saturday March 28, 2020 KusaharaPosted in Miscellaneous Blog Posts

My last injury last autumn was actually pretty bad with broken bone in hand and broken rib that punctured the lung. The doctor first said my left collarbone was broken too, which turned out to be bone chips from old injuries. And the other shoulder kept aching for a long time despite the lack of […]

Now cast free

Posted Friday October 14, 2011Saturday March 28, 2020 KusaharaPosted in Miscellaneous Blog Posts

My broken right hand is now good enough to go without the cast after three weeks and a half. Two days ago, I suddenly felt like “Ah, the bone has just got back together,” so I went to see the doctor yesterday although it was earlier than scheduled. The doctor gave me an OK, and […]
