Dan_The_Man_16 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2005 I broke this blocking a shot (shin pad slipped ). Doc says I can go as soon as it feels good, just wondering if anyone else has broken this and how long it took to heal.Thanks guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J-Shera 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2005 Do you mean patella? If so I broke mine and it was 5 weeks before i could walk without pain. So that might give you an estimate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buzz_LightBeer 969 Report post Posted January 10, 2005 Im sure it will feel just fine until you fall on it or put pressure on it, best of luck in your rehab Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biff44 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2005 The guys that have screwed up their knees like that remember the very important lesson: you must tape up those shin pads so well that they do not move around, even when you are falling on them! If they move around, no protection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EBondo 232 Report post Posted January 10, 2005 yup, I think i have very weak knees, don't know why, but any time I fall on them, they hurt a lot, i get back to the bench and wow, the pain starts, after the game feels the worse but gets better the next day... hmmm can anyone clarify what this could be?
