About twelve years ago I had a double open fracture when I broke both my Tib and Fib bones and it was touch and go as to whether or not the leg could be saved but the surgeons managed to save it.I have a metal rod going up that leg and I did have two screws top and bottom but the two top ones were removed before I left hospital.What I would like to know is why I am still getting a ache in the bottom of the leg which sometimes can be affected by the weather is this normal.Just being curious,Has anyone on here had the same accident.
