WWAW Limping for years on end?

[NortheastPhilly]

I’ve been limping for the past few years and its only getting worse. Started in the military and just sucked it up for a while, but its getting old. Dont have health insurance now though.
Based on research Im pretty sure its posterior tibial tendonitis that I never treated. How fucked am I? Being a gimp for the rest of my life would be kind of a bummer

just turn it into an exaggerated 'gangster limp' & get urself a pimp cane

If it's tendinitis, you can probably fix it by icing and using a compression sleeve. Just go down to Walgreens and spend $15 on one of these mugs before going to the doctor

I'd tell you to go kick rocks but that would just aggravate the situation.

Tell people it's a war injury. Like maybe you kicked an Arab child to death. Pretty sure you can buy purple hearts online.

Also think of the parking. Turn that frown upside down, guy!

You don't have permanent insurance from military "service?" Not even for shit that was caused by being in it? wtf?

Discharged from the Navy without prolapse issues or HIV? Be happy you've beaten the odds.

Have you tried walking normally?

 

[EllenTorquehorn]

Were you stationed at Camp Lejeune?

if it's permanent maybe you can get an oxy script and start making FFBL posts

If you're not a raging alcoholic, ibuprofen and Tylenol can work wonders. Also, why didn't you get it taken care of on the government's dime when you had the chance? There's no shame in being a malingering limp dick if you're actually in chronic pain.

Hot take: it stinks and I don’t like it. But seriously, brothaman the VA can’t do anything for you? What kinda fly by night operation is this?
