Acute and chronic leg Compartment Syndrome - Everything You Need To Know - Dr. Nabil Ebraheim

[@customizedtrainingservices2079]

Thank you so much for the straight forward video. I developed an acute case of compartment syndrome in my lower left leg about 30 months ago. I was just pushing a wheelbarrow. I felt a slight strain in my leg and two days later it hit me. I am 77 years old and not an athlete. They performed an emergency fasciotomy with two long incisions and employed a wound vac. It took me about two months before I could walk again. It was a very painful process. After watching your video, I am able to more completely understand this condition. Thank you again!!!

I recently discovered your videos. I find them very very helpful. I'm working in orthopaedics and information I get from your videos help with my recall especially because I learn better visually. Thank you Professor....much respect from the UK

I have never had CECS until recently. I was running marathons at a very fast pace 2 years ago. I took a year off of running and got into weight lifting. All of the sudden, now when I run my leg pressure skyrockets causing my to stop after about 10-15 minutes, and preventing flexion of my foot. I have developed fascial hernias in my leg which get worse during this time. Been to physical therapy for a couple months now with slow progress to "strengthen the muscles" though I am not sure it's doing much. Honestly, Im perplexed why Id get this now.

[@simont6439]

How did it go? Did you try to stop weight lifting and did that enable you to run without symptoms?

Is it typical to have the leg/calf with CECS be larger than the other? That is the case for me. The calf with CECS is visibly larger than my opposite calf. I had a fasciotomy 2 years ago and am having the same symptoms again and have concerns that the muscle will continue to become larger in my affected leg. TIA for your input.

Good, thanks

I think I suffer from the later, being the chronic exertional compartment syndrome

[@juvecrow7995]

So what if we close the hole instead of opening the rest of it will it be enough and how it's will effect the leg

No doctor can give me answers. In pain everyday all day. Many different types of pain, including the calf feeling like it's going to snap my shin in half from pressure within. Walking with limp now. Been in right calf for 11 yrs, pain is started to radiate up into my thigh and hip. Doctor sent me to physical therapy for a month... Told them it's making pain worse. 2 weeks after they agreed that physical therapy was not helping, I got meligaria paresthetica!! I pinched nerve at the top of thigh/hip. So still have extreme calf pain also with extreme thigh hip pain. Question for anyone here... DOES THE MIDDLE OUTER SIDE OF YOUR CALF SNAP, CRACK OR POP? (Like a joint would) If so, does the pain become worse after?
