Those are some damn good doctors. I thought that arm was gone, for sure.

Patching up the wound is one thing. Whether that arm will be of any use is a completely different story.

Also, there are cases where the limb is damaged, useless and keeps the person in constant pain and they just tell the doctors later on - fuck it, cut it off.

Good bet that arm's brick throwing days are behind it.

But he can probably still throw a football better than Colin Kaepernick.

Yeah, the arm will likely be useless. I'll be surprised if it gets enough blood flow.

Modern medicine can do wonders with stem cell treatments to regenerate tissue, but it'll probably cost him his other arm, and a leg, lol.

Yeah, he's never lifting that arm again. This is just enough to stop it from bleeding out. The muscle is gone. There's nothing there to reconnect. That arm is in a sling for life. He will still be able to use his hand, but lifting his forearm is impossible.

what you're actually seeing there, most of the wound is filled in with a what's called a wound VAC that's filling up the area that's going to have to heal over a long,long time.

For folks wondering

The black stuff is foam. It is packed into the wound to create a pathway for all the stuff the vacuum pump (where vac in wound vac comes from) sucks up from living tissue to flow through on its way to that tube coming out his elbow.

On top of the foam, and spanning on to his skin is a clear plastic film (strong stuff with a strong glue on it) that creates an airtight seal across the wound.

Then the tube is attached to a break in the clear plastic. When the vacuum is started the previously springy foam condenses down as air pressure outside the seal pushes it all into place.

On the far end of the tube (not pictured) is a vacuum, which houses a pump, sensors, batteries (when portable) and a chamber to catch all the crap that it sucks out of the wound.

The gentle suction of the vac both cleans the wound site out and encourages blood flow to the area to aid healing.

I was wondering if they were gonna use duck tape. Looks like they did.

That’s a wound vac set up. Sucks up wound exudate to allow tissue to heal and regrow. He should be in jail though. Wound vacs work there too.

If you can’t duck it, duck tape it.

He didn’t duck.

That’s why he got shot...
