Like I suspected the R-18G was more about the pain than gore. I have to say, I'm both relieved and disappointed that the depiction is much tamer than I feared and expected. S-syogo may do something more graphic later though.
He's being active lately...so we'll have chance to see more from him.
I dunno if an artist who has experienced heavy injury can implement guro on his/her artwork without something like mental trauma disturbing him/her. To be honest, I can't stand extreme guro.

I don't mind guro, to be honest, but as you said extreme guro is something that I can't stand or tolerate. Wishing that s-syogo doesn't go to that direction, though.
That being said, is he ever aware that he's popular in Danbooru?
That's his comment there. He's fully aware, he appreciates comments about his artwork (praise or criticism) and he doesn't seem to care about his images being uploaded here without his consent in the slightest. In fact, he even said "I don't think it's anything to be angry about since they acknowledge me as the artist. In fact I'm happy that my images are introduced to international sites and criticized!"

Right now he's feeling disappointed at himself about how many messages point out that the image isn't exactly R-18G. Exactly like you said, he didn't make it more graphic because of his trauma.

Speaking as a make-shift artist, the last time I had a head-splitting toothache involving a wisdom tooth that has a bad growth(With one side of its crown thrusting at the front tooth.), I was actually inspired for more violence/gore stuff till the pain resided.
