It’s a funny thing to ask and it may seem like a daft question, but I have wondering this for a few months now. Can wounds obtained in life be passed down genetically to your Children or even your Grandchildren??? The same way I guess that other medical ailments can.
I ask because when my Dad was 18 he got into an altercation with a gang of Teddy boys, and got stabbed in the right leg – just under the buttock to be precise. He was in hospital for a few days, but he was back on his feet within a few weeks.
As he got older however the old wound started giving him a bit of gip, and as a kid I remember him getting frustrated when the wound played up, which prevented his mobility, and even his work, as on some days he could barely move the leg at all – which meant he couldn’t work so didn’t get paid.
Back in the early summer, I started to notice that my right leg was becoming painful at times, and for the most part the pain was just under the right buttock. The only exercise I do these days is walking, and I know I haven’t had an accident or pulled a muscle etc.
Also back in the summer I was chatting to my two brothers, and I mentioned that I have been getting pains in the right leg, just below the buttock, only for both my brothers to say the same thing.. My nephew ( only 20 years of age ) was also chatting with us, and said that before he plays football he has to stretch his right let out much more than his left, otherwise he gets a bit of muscular pain and again just under the right buttock.
Strange eh..?
If anyone on here with a medical background feels the above query is impossible, then feel free mods, to put this one into the coincidence thread
