Homolateral Lisfranc
My husband was in the bathroom and passed out while he was standing up and cracked his head on the sink and somehow hurt his foot when he fell. He had no clue how it happened and woke up in blood from his head. He said his foot was killing him way more than the huge gash on his head. We went to the emergency room where he got stitches on his head and got an X-ray on his foot which was really swollen. We were really hoping it was just a sprain but the doctor came back telling us it’s a homolateral lisfranc fracture which is the worst that you can get and now he needs surgery which I was hoping he didn’t need, but he wasn’t hopeful and knew he needed it because of how much pain he’s in. His doctor said he will most likely be able to drive within 9 weeks which is good to hear (I had my license for years but barely driven since so time for driving lessons for a refresher 😩). Has anyone had these weird freak accidents happen to them? We both have no idea how he got such a bad fracture from passing out in the bathroom. Of course we’re very thankful it wasn’t anything worst but it’s just really crazy that it happened.
