So I've just come out of a 3 day stint in hospital as the result of a mildly serious over-the-bars incident off a drop (tire burping caused the crash). The bars came up under my ribs, crushing the liver, kidneys and spleen, causing a smallish laceration to the liver and a bit of bleeding/bruising(inside the liver), which has resulted in a clot. I've been told not to do any exercise of any kind for at least 6 weeks, which seems a bit over the top. Obviously I'm going to seek other opinions from other (sports) doctors, but I was wondering if anyone on here has had a similar injury and how long it took to come right. It's frustrating having something internal and unknown like this as opposed to more obvious injuries like broken bones, which have clearly documented healing times.
Also, can I drink? Having any kind of damage to my liver probably means no, but it would kill me to not be able to drown my sorrows if I really can't ride my bike for 6 weeks...
