: A broken Tibia which is casted and healing would require a significant trauma to rebreak and cause further damage. Running your leg down your wheelchair may not have been enough trauma to cause significant injury, but if you have increased pain and swelling, you should see your Dr for a full evaluation and repeat xray.
