I know how ODLH feels - when you have spent years using a part of your body intensively and repetitively, it begins to degenerate.

Many of these injuries are chronic and will not heal up, as evidenced by the thousands of retired ex-sportsmen whose bodies are ravaged by injury.

For example, I have recently developed a hole in my arse. This is the result of years of talking repetitively and intensely out of it. I think the constant noise and loudness chronically weakened the sidewall or something. As an international-class arsehole, I sympathise with Oscar on this.
