I’m on your page. Most of your comments apply to me also. So in January 2025, I took a fall in my dark yard tripping over a ladder. I broke my femur and my hip. I had what is called an IT nail repair which is very complex involving two long nails and six screws. 20% of the people that go through that surgery die in the first five days, I am now 14 months out and while I walk with a limp, I’m walking and living a fairly normal life. I can’t walk as far or with as much energy, but I’m glad to be alive. I call the red light therapy during my year long convalescence my “red light pain pill.” I bought a hip belt, which was wide enough to cover both the hip and the femur break with high intensity, LED light. I bought the item on Amazon and at the time it was a shot in the dark, but anything to help endure the chronic pain and debilitation. I credit that device with keeping me sane. I recognize that this does not cure anything. It is merely pain alleviation, but if that’s what you’re looking for I heartily recommend this for deep tissue pain relief. Look over the size variety and the fda approval, and avoid ones that clamp on. I tried a knee one for an arthritic knee and that was worthless because it didn’t adhere tightly to my skin. Good luck and keep on keeping on! Attitude is more than half the battle.
