Anyway, I guess I can understand it...along with all the fluid built up in there, I was loosing circulation. I didn't realize it, but parts of my ear were turning white, and other parts still had bruising. There was swelling that not only wasn't going down, was getting worse. I met my Dad for his birthday dinner on Sunday evening, and met him again when I went into the ER Monday night. He noted that the swelling was worse, and I hadn't been training at all in between. The swelling had increased, and was cutting off circulation. Crap.
So, today I went to the specialist and he wouldn't drain the damn thing either...he sliced my ear open in three different places. He put holes in my ear! He then proceeded to wrap my head in gauze as tightly as he possibly could; he had put some stuff in the cuts he had made so that they wouldn't close and the ear would continue to drain on its own. Great.
Now, I look like a Crypt or Blood who accidentally put his bandana in a bleach load. Obviously I can't train, but he warned me against sweating or showering, as this would make the bandaging fall apart. Also, increasing my heart rate would only bring more crap to my ear that would have to drain as well. This means I can't even go for a run if I want to.
So on Thanksgiving Day, I'll be meeting up with him in the morning to take off the bandages. No training, no running, no nothing. I really don't even want to go outside looking like this, heh. I do have plenty of homework to catch up so I'll be busy, but this really, really sucks.

Doctors are dumb asses, I can't believe they did this to you.
its a crip not a crypt
Bro wtf is wrong with you? wear a ear guard like me or you will have cauliflower ear everytime and then you will have to drain it everytime so you migh as well start wearing an ear guard or get a syringe if its thta dificult to wear
Bro wtf is wrong with you? You have extremely improper grammar. You cannot spell "might," "that," nor "difficult." Furthermore, you seem to have no grasp of the concept of the run-on. Perhaps you need a mouth guard. Not the traditional kind to protect from concussions, but rather one to protect everyone from the drivel spewing forth from your lips. Come to think of it, maybe one that is phallic in nature would make you feel right at home.
