A member asked:
If someone suffered a fracture/growth plate fracture in their tibia would they feel walking pain at the closest joint or at the site of the fracture?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Assuming healing?: If the fracture is healed you could feel some discomfort in the knee. If the fracture is not healed you could have pain at the fracture site
