Hi, I’m almost 12 month since my broken ankle which unfortunately is non union. This was diagnosed Oct 16 as a result of a ct scan, after checking that I have no infection they recommended I begin exogen therapy, after some unexpected waiting time since Oct, I will begin the treatment on the 30th of Jan, can anybody shed light on their experience of this treatment. Thank you.

    I just recently started with the exogen stimulator for non union. No results as of yet as I do not see my doctor for another two weeks. Using the simulator is very easy and totally non evasive. I use it 20 min in morning and the same in the evening.

    Hi, I’ve been on the Exogen therapy for over two weeks now, I go back to the Orthopaedic in 4 weeks for an X-ray to see if signs are there of knitting together, I’m noticing an increase in tenderness around the ankle, I’m thinking this is a positive, any ideas?
