A member asked:
After a hard impact martial arts my shin bone seems to have been chipped. the area is now all mushy, how long before it is replaced with hard bone?

This may not be a : Bone issue but a hematoma ( blood under the skin) or fat and/ or muscle necrosis (dead tissue) that feels mushy-see a physician for evaluation to see what the diagnosis is before assuming it is a bone issue which may also be bruised or contused.
