"With the mysterious height enhancement technique inherited from the ancestors, fracture regeneration is no longer a dream! "When you see such a powerful advertisement, will you take a few more looks?
If you happen to be bothered by your height, would you like to dig deeper and even give it a try? Li Yanuo, a 20-year-old boy from Beijing, found a similar advertisement for height enhancement by chance and was convinced.
Li Yanuo once accepted this "miraculous medical technique" that is said to be able to grow taller due to the opposition and dissuasion of his family, but he regrets it and still suffers from the sequelae.
Will he be able to grow taller from a broken bone? What is his current condition? If you've ever been troubled by your height, when you've tried to reach high enough with your hands or feet, have you ever thought that if you can grow another centimeter taller, you won't have to work so hard at all?
Maybe just that one centimeter is enough for you to take things easily. Li Yanuo, a boy from Beijing, has the same problem. He had a happy childhood, excelled in his studies, and was praised by his parents and teachers.
However, whenever Li Yanuo plays with his peers, he always seems a little out of place. This is not because he doesn't want to participate in the game, but because of his relatively short stature.
They are developing and maturing psychologically, and they have begun to pay attention to their own characteristics and shortcomings. When everyone inadvertently talks about standing tall, Li Yanuo always keeps his head down.
At first, he didn't attract much attention from his parents as he was still in the early and middle stages of development. According to the elders, there is a difference between early and late children's development, and Li Yanuo has not yet reached the period of rapid growth.
Girls still have the saying of "eighteen changes", they believe that Li Yanuo will be able to catch up with the height of children of the same age as he grows older. After listening to his parents, Li Yanuo firmly believed that he would be able to grow taller in the future, and came to middle school with great expectations.
However, when he actually went to middle school, he found that boys and girls of the same age had generally grown a lot in height, which made him feel a little confused and troubled.
After studying biology, Li Yanuo learned that height development is affected by many factors such as cells, genes, and genetics. He shared what he had learned with his parents, who were surprised to find that their children's words were correct.
When the school stands in line, Li Yanuo always stands in the front row, and the teacher usually puts the students who are good at learning in the back row to help the students who are lagging behind, which is understandable.
However, when it comes to Li Yanuo, there are some problems. Due to his short stature, he couldn't read the contents of the blackboard clearly in the back row. Growing up, he rarely said "no", so he didn't have the courage to ask his teacher about the problem of not being able to see the blackboard clearly because of his short stature.
As a result, his grades began to decline. At the beginning, the teachers at the school approached the parents because of Li Yanuo's declining grades, but no one could find a specific reason, and Li Yanuo did not choose to tell his parents.
When he mastered the knowledge of biology, he bravely told his parents the truth. His parents realised that their child's height was indeed lower than that of his peers, especially as a boy, and that height issues could take a toll on his self-esteem.
So, they began to prepare him with various health care drugs that supplement calcium and promote bone growth, and supervised him to take them every day; He also asked him to do gymnastics every day that stretched his body.
After a period of hard work, Li Yanuo only gained a centimeter in height. After entering high school, he became the shortest boy in his class, only 166 cm tall, and even looked a little short when standing with most of the girls.
This made Li Yanuo full of inferiority complex in his heart, and he was reluctant to walk with everyone, because the height contrast was too obvious; When eating, he always finds a corner by himself, because he is only half a body high from the dining table when he sits down.
Although Li Yanuo is short in stature, he has a great dream in his heart - to fly into the blue sky and become an Air Force pilot. However, when the dream came true, he missed the opportunity because of his height.
Once, when the news of the Air Force's special recruitment of outstanding students came, Li Yanuo excitedly signed up, and he had long been ready to become a pilot. However, in the first round of physical examination, he was eliminated because of his lack of height.
Despite this, Li Yanuo did not give up, he firmly believes that as long as he has a dream, he will be able to achieve it.
Li Yanuo walked into the physical examination room full of hope, but the physical examination form in his hand made him extremely disappointed. When he got home, he locked himself in the house, and the cries of his parents did not help, only his cries could be heard echoing in the house.
His dream was to become a pilot, but the reality of his unqualified height made him completely devastated. In order to realize his dream, he began to try various methods and medicines, as if only growing taller could give him a way out.
Although the parents were worried, Li Yanuo's emotions prevented them from objecting and could only comply. In 2014, while browsing the web, Li Yanuo accidentally saw an advertisement for broken bone augmentation surgery, which gave him a glimmer of life.
Bone lengthening, also known as broken bone augmentation, is to open the original bone on the lower leg or thigh, and regrow the bone and extend the length through postoperative training, so as to achieve the effect of heightening.
This kind of surgery needs to be performed in a first-class hospital, but Li Yanuo does not know about it. He was curious about this and clicked on the webpage to check it out. The presentation on the web page is amazing, and there are many "successful" cases that attract him.
He felt that this was a lifesaver for him and was very desperate to undergo surgery**. He contacted the customer service of the page and learned that it is a private plastic surgery hospital that has extensive experience in bone lengthening surgery and has helped many people with short stature achieve height gain.
However, the cost of the surgery adds up to about 100,000 yuan, not including the cost of post-operative training and drug maintenance, which is about 160,000 yuan in total.
Li Yanuo's family is good, and in order to realize his dream of growing taller, the family has spent a lot of money. However, coming up with so much money at once is still not a small burden.
In addition, Li Yanuo's parents heard that the operation was obvious, and the recovery process was also painful. They didn't want their son to suffer this sin. However, Liano's persistence and his complaints made his parents feel guilty.
They began to look for a strong plastic surgery hospital. Upon inquiry, they learned that this surgery can increase height, but the increased height varies from person to person. And, if not stretched in place, it can also lead to bone necrosis.
Hearing this, Li Yanuo's parents felt tight. However, the doctor's next words made them decide to give the child surgery. The doctor said that although it was obvious, there were many successful cases.
He gave a few to Li Yanuo's parents"Success stories"is actually an operator at the hospital.
Through the communication with these ** people, Li Yanuo's parents learned that the success rate of the operation was very high, which gradually dispelled the doubts in their hearts. Eventually, they agreed to let Li Yano undergo surgery.
Remorse after the operation made him decide to undergo surgery, and after the operation, Li Yanuo's heart was full of excitement that the physical defect that had plagued him for nearly 20 years was about to be repaired. What he didn't expect, however, was that his nightmare had just begun.
To celebrate his birthday, Li Yanuo chose to have surgery on his 20th birthday. On September 24, 2014, Li Yanuo was ready for surgery and was pushed into the operating room.
His parents waited anxiously at the door of the operating room. Lying on the operating table, Li Yanuo was nervous and expectant, this was the first operation in his life, he didn't know what would happen next, but at the same time, he also looked forward to a higher version of himself when he woke up.
As the effect of the anesthetic made him fall into a deep sleep, only the sound of dripping instruments and the "click" saw bones remained in the operating room.
At the door of the operating room, Li Yanuo's parents waited nervously and anxiously. The operation went on for several hours, and they didn't leave a single step. When the red light went out, they immediately got up and waited for their son to wake up.
However, when they saw their son, who was unconscious and covered in braces, their hearts ached like knives, and they also prayed for a miracle. Although the miracle did not go as they wished, a series of after-effects followed.
Pain in bone growth after surgery is a problem they have to face. During childhood, children experience leg pain, which is usually a normal reaction to growing pains. However, Li Yanuo's pain level is far more than that, and whenever the pain hits, he tells himself that it is a normal phenomenon, and he can get through it by gritting his teeth.
But over time, the pain does not lessen, but worsens. In addition, the torture brought by ** also made them feel stressed.
Under normal circumstances, the doctor will gradually perform stretching and traction after surgery to help the bone recover and achieve the effect of lengthening. However, before Li Yanuo removed the brace on his leg, his calf muscles had begun to atrophy, and the slightest movement of the brace caused severe pain, which caused him to howl in pain and even bite his lip.
In addition, his legs recovered at different speeds after the operation, and there was obviously a situation of long and short legs, which made his whole family very worried. Although the doctor says that this condition can be corrected, it will require an additional fee and will prolong** the time.
Although the surgery lengthened Li Yanuo's leg by 72 cm, but behind this is his endless pain and trauma of the heart. The daily training, pain, and stretching tormented his spirit.
Although Li Yanuo is only 20 years old, his life experience is limited and his mind is not yet mature. In this case, he deeply regretted it. Regarding the sequelae of broken bone regeneration, there are clear regulations in our country that it is not allowed to be performed as a medical plastic surgery.
This means that only regular hospitals with **A or above qualifications can perform this surgery. In addition, we do not recommend this procedure for normal people.
No matter how skilled you are, there are still risks associated with surgery. Bone regeneration requires complex conditions, and the outcome after surgery is unpredictable. Although this surgery has been around for a long time, its main purpose is to help children with congenital dysplasia, such as long and short legs due to polio.
Even if it is to be carried out, it should be at a young age, because the bones around the age of 20 have basically been set and stop growing.
Li Yanuo challenged the scientific law of growth during the operation, albeit at great risk. In China, some parents hold the notion that "it's better to be ugly than short", believing that being short in height will have a negative impact on aesthetics and future employment and starting a family.
Therefore, Li Yanuo's parents agreed to him undergo surgery, on the one hand, because of the guilt of the child, and on the other hand, they also hoped that he would grow taller and look more handsome, and at the same time, there were those unscrupulous doctors".
However, history teaches us that height is not the only measure of a person's worth. Although Yan Zi was short in stature, he was ambitious and an outstanding politician and thinker.
Comrade Lei Feng is only 1.54 meters tall, but his actions prove that the value of life is not about its length, but about how it is used. Therefore, we need to accept our ordinariness and not have to pursue height too much.
Although Li Yanuo's height increased by 7 after surgery2 cm, but the body function has declined, and the weight is less than 100 pounds. ”
Li Yanuo was unable to walk for a long time due to the degeneration of his leg muscles, which caused his calf strength to be unable to support his weight. He used to dream of having straight legs, but the ** after the operation was not in place, which caused the bone to bend and grow, making him afraid to face his legs.
Even after 8 years, the pain caused by the surgery has not subsided. Whenever the pain kept him awake, he would cry alone, regretting his choice. Nowadays, he can no longer run as before, and even after **, his mobility is much less than before.
When he was supposed to study at university, he could only lie in the hospital bed, and it was difficult to even turn over. Although money brought him temporary comfort, the impulsive decision left him with half a lifetime of pain and sequelae.
In this world, everyone is unique. However, our bodies are our unique carriers. It's our body, it's our ego, it's everything to us.
So, please respect your body and take care of your body, because your body is who you are, your truest being.
