Arthritis: Do you mean you broke it in 4 pieces, in one event, or that you broke it four separate times? If the latter is true, you need to have your bone density and some labwork checked. If it was all one nasty break, you have scarring and some arthritis and inflammation that are common. The joint will not be "like new". Treat it carefully, ice and some antiinflammatories will help.
