apparently it makes a lot of difference if you have a simple fracture (6 weeks) or multiple fracture + soft tissue damage (12 weeks). I just had my 12 week x-ray and one of my breaks has not healed, and probably won’t now, which is also common with multiple fractures. My guy also told me that having a plate does not affect whether the bone heals or not, and it’s actually worse to have a plate over a bone that doesn’t heal.
Saying that, I just had my first ride today and it was fine. The issue now is the amount of muscle that wasted away while I have been sat on my arse over Xmas replacing it with an extra stone of lard.
