My step-dad cut his hand off when he was a kid with a chainsaw...
That looks gruesome man!! Hope you heal and get yourself a good woman that can knit you some socks with 9.5 toe slots!

OK- As a former medic -
Keep your foot raised as much as you can, so the blood can ciculate. Try and stay away from alcohol, it will thin your blood, not good - also stay away from asprin, another blood thinner. Take ALL of your antibiotics, the full cycle is important. Clean your bandages daily, and the wound as much as you can.
If it starts to hurt more than usual, has any strange smells, go to the ER.
Hope you feel better soon.

LOL how Appropriate, helping me guard my body.

thanks man haven’t had any alcohol, and I’ve cut my smoking down from a pack down to 4 aday.

doc said nicotine causes your blood vessels to constrict, so i really need to stop alltogether, if i want to avoid getting a skin grapht.
i've been cleaning and re dressing every day, i think is doin good.

i just set down in my class, and i couldnt get a handicap parking pass for on campus, so i had to walk half a damn mile from the parking lot.

but its not that bad. i think once the bone heals it wont hurt to walk on
