There is an idea of a Yuns, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me, only an entity, something illusory, and though I can hide my cold gaze and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable: I simply am not there.

This happened to my best friend and I escorted him to ER and they only drained his ear. Next morning it swelled up again so we went to our other good friend who is a nurse at a cosmetic surgery clinic and was able to fix it right. She told us that in these cases it will unfortunately keep getting swollen unless the skin can attach back onto the cartilage, so after draining his ear she had to scrape the cartilage to make it rough and then adhered plastic mesh to keep the skin in contact with the cartilage. After a week he went back to her to take off the mesh and his ear is fine now. I have no clue if this is the same as your specific case, but you can talk to your doctor whether that is needed.

I'm glad that Blanchfield beat Gabby in the final, because Gabby was starting to piss me off. She single handedly made that event twice as long as it needed to be with her stall-and-tiebreaker-ride strategy.

I just kept draining mine and wore headgear. Actually tried going to a doctor to get him to do something and he just wanted to refer me to a plastic surgeon which seemed kind laughable.

I drained mine once and then put small round neodymium magnets on each side to help hold it together (otherwise it will just refill) This hurt like hell but did work. I had the magnets on for about 7 - 10 days, took them off at night and a few days in I started to put athletic tape around them to "decrees" the amount of tension holding them together, without the tape it was to strong and bruised my ear (hope that is understandable, I am having a hard time putting it into words) been wearing headgear since and my ear healed up just fine.

EDIT: Pretty much homemade version of these, magnets are like 10 bucks at any hardware / hobby store and tape I already had:

EDIT AGAIN: Ha, first Amazon review "It can look stupid but most people think your gauging your ear" Yep, had to explain like 10 times a day that I was not , in fact a 38 year old grown rear end man suddenly trying to gauge out my ears (the top of my ears?? is that even a thing?), to people who know me.

We had guys in the gym that swore by various methods for achieving this using everything from clothespins to fire. Not surprisingly, there was a high correlation between evangelizing these ideas and having gnarly as gently caress ears.

If it's refilling, go to a doctor (yes, they might send you to a plastic surgeon or an ENT, but whatever), and have them cut it, to really get everything out, and then sew the skin closed like a button through the cartilage. It takes like a week to heal, and then wear headgear for another week or two.

I haven't read it but I listened to the author discussing this book and took quite a bit from it. It's not sports specific, but explores the stress response in general and how all the physiological effects (high heart rate, increased respirations, racing thoughts) are actually your brain and body preparing for peak performance. Understanding this allows you to embrace the response rather than fight it.

Even without having read the book just knowing this has helped me deal with competition jitters better.

This was what the doctor I went to was saying I'd need a plastic surgeon for, which seemed dumb for something I felt like he shoulda been able to manage. For future reference, is this the kind of thing most general practitioners should be able to deal with, or are my expectations unrealistic?

I had my girlfriend drain it again (shes studying to become a nurse) and I'm also now applying pressure to it. Last time I didn't apply any pressure and also got back on the mats two days after having it drained. I'll have to see how it heals this time. Oh and I got some ear protection too.

Overall the swell is pretty small. Nothing like the ones you see when you google cauliflower ear. Out came about 1ml of fluid.

It can be fully within their scope without them being fully comfortable doing it. If he never got exposed in training he probably just doesn't want to do it wrong. Plenty of nurses are willing to hack job a drain (myself included) but my MD's prefer to be a little more perfectionist. A lot of family medicine and some internal medicine guys do a side fellowship in sports medicine, ask if the office has one. They're more likely to know the procedure.

A GP should be fine. Here most have come across cauliflower ears as Rugby injuries and know what to do. But you will sometimes find GPs that aren't familiar with them. One of my students went to a GP with a cauliflower ear and the doctor thought it had appeared randomly and was trying to do a biopsy. Another time this kid student of mine got one and went to a GP who scared the poo poo out of his parents about being permanently deformed. So they went the plastic surgeon route. After all that the kid didn't even make it another 6 months before it blew up again, this time they did the basic drain/compress with a GP and the result was the same.

Judo terminology is a bit easier once you internalize a few of the translations.

Ashi = foot
Goshi = hip
Harai/Barai = sweep
O = major,
Ko = minor
Soto = outside
Uchi = inside
Tsuri = lifting
Otoshi = drop
Guruma = wheel

With those you can work out most (not all) of the core 40 throws from their names. EG De Ashi Bari = foot sweep. "De" mean "advancing," but that's not something that you need to remember so much to be able to figure it out. Harai Goshi? That's easy now. By the time you need to know what "Hane Goshi" means, you will.

Thanks for the post. My problem is I don't utilize a lot of the judo we learn yet and the instructors will sometimes refer to something by the japanese name one moment and then outside foot sweep a moment later. Like I know I've done "kosoto"s but the language there doesnt give me much of a clue if I'm looking back ("minor outside"). Certain things I remember "sumegeishi" (sp?) "uchimata" etc. certain things I don't. I do remember stuff I use a lot like Ashi Garamis but that's probably obvious.

It is a little weird when there seems to be an established word for a move and someone uses the obscure version (e.g. double wristlock instead of kimura, sankaku instead of triangle).

e- an aside but has anyone had success with the "parachute" move Rener does when he gets his back taken. Impractical in a fight or tournament but it looks fun to mess with.

Sangaku is the Japanese word for "Triangular." Danaher is a weeb so the Japanese names have been catching on again. I've been doing Judo since I was 7, so I have the names pretty internalized - the throws that make me go "uhhh" are ones like Daki-age and Daki-wakare (which I've been learning because I'm helping someone prep for a nidan test). I don't know how much I can help you learn it, but I don't mind chatting about terminology.

That said, "kosoto" is just short for "kosoto gari," which is a minor outside reap - attacking uke's right leg with a pulling foot sweep from your left. Osoto gari is stepping in to attack uke's right with your right - the big reap.

When you're on bottom side control what are you doing with your hips?

Are you just laying there?

Recently I've been pressing off the ball of my foot farthest from them so I'm constantly applying a bit of hip pressure into them. I can't believe I haven't done this sooner. The increase in sensitivity for what your opponent is doing is insane.
