Re: [RC] Broken leg pain - rides2far

One very expensive rod later, 6 months on crutches, my knee hurts 
quite  often. Best physical therapy was getting back to riding 

The riding instructor my little horse kicked in the thigh started having
foot pain several weeks later. The kick wound was a pretty big knot when
I saw it 3 or 4 weeks later. Turned out he'd split 3 muscles and it was
drawig up and healing short which was putting pressure on her achilles
tendon. :-P  Could it be that the 6 months on crutches caused your
muscles to contract some and it's causing knee pain? You might consider
stretching exercises or check into therapy.

Angie (who is very wary of his heels now though he's shown no signs of
aggression)
