Is it okay for the tetanus shot site to itch?? Mine is red and itches....
I saw my orthopedist on Tuesday and he took another set of Xrays and
agreed with the ER doc.
I had sprained, disclocated and broke my fibula bone.It was a transverse break.
He said I did the right thing by fixing the disclocation right away.
It saved me a lot of pain and damage to the area.

I kept asking the nurse and the doc...."You can cut my jeans off--like on TV!
My husband said he'd buy me a new pair!" Well, they made me take them off instead.
I'll get new jeans anyway...later :)

I can use ice packs on my left knee, as well as my ankle. The Xrays of my left knee didn't
show any breaks or tears. I just banged it up real good. I can also step lightly
with the walking boot. That makes getting around a little easier. I never was good at hopscotch
when I was a kid anyway!

I think it's normal for the tetanus to itch in some people. If you're at all concerned, call & ask the doc, but I'm sure it's just an annoying side effect.

Can I just say OW! Did they cast you or just tell you stay off it & take pain killers? (When Brian broke his arm right above elbow, all they did was put him in a sling. Didn't even wrap it.)
