I'm doing a project for my exercise science course which involves building a joint in the human bodyI've chosen the hip joint.I have most of my bones' structure planned out - I'll make a wire frame out of coat hangers, then densely wrap aluminum foil around that, and coat the entire thing with plaster so that it hardensIn terms of attaching the femur, I was thinking of using a plastic ball (the kind you find in ball pits) with a strong magnet inside, and then another magnet on the pelvisThis would allow it to rotate freely without falling off, assuming the magnet is strong enough.On to ligamentsI have a general understanding of what ligaments I'm supposed to be building, but I'm not sure how to make themIn diagrams they look like they're made of chewing gum, but obviously I need something that will be suitable for a model and will stick to the bone structure.Any suggestions?Also if you have any suggestions for materials I could use for muscles, it would be greatly appreciated:]
oh honey it doesn't hurt at allIt may be slightly weird but if you put them in right, you won't even be able to feel itTampons come with a little paper thing that tell you how to do it, so it's fool proofDon't be afraid because it doesn't hurt at allplus, tampons are waaaaaayyyy better than padsgood luck!
It won't hurt if you put them in rightRead the instructions that come with the box and use regular or smaller tampons for now especially if your flow is not very heavyYou shouldn't feel anything really.
My first tampon hurt a littleUse Tampax Pearl Lites firstThey're smaller than the others and shouldn't be that badMake sure when u put it in, that you try to relaxRead the directions and take your timeI wear tampons all the time nowWouldn't wear anything else.
Your best bet is going to be to use rubber bands since ligaments are strechyYou can cut the rubber band and tie it around the bone since in real life that is pretty much how it is attached to boneA rubber band will be your most realistic bet because ligaments recoil and snap back in to place after stretched the same way a rubber band doesGood luck.
