A member asked:

Does pushing down leg against floor causes any damage to growth plates and do the pressure on the leg cause the long bone to go up and fuse plates?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Laura Anissian answered

No: No, this does not cause the growth plates to close, or affect them.

Dr Modi and another doctor agreed
