Hi, I just fractured the growth plate in my ankle in a hockey game and i want to know if there are any good exercises or certain things i can do to help it heal better. Also, what does a fractured growth plate mean?
Thanks
It means the very ends of the long bones of your shin – both the knee area and the ankle area. Really really really protect that ankle with whatever wrap the doctor gave you. Make sure it is not too tight. You need a vitain supplement and extra protein. Do not reinjure that ankle. You could end up with one leg shorter than the other.
