What are the chances of my son returning to sports after bone graph on his sesamoids?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bone graft: Generally good, but may not be for a while (give it at least 6months to a year). What as the bone graft exactly for as if you are 19, i'm guessing your son is younger than 7 years old and sesamoid bones aren't visible on xray yet. Please elaborate, thanks.
