Are the soft tissue complications that are experienced typically local in that they normally only occur around the point at which the bone is broken? Or is soft tissue adaptation difficulty typically experienced up and down the entire limb extending from the epicenter (the location where the bone was broken)? Any anecdotal MRI's to suggest one or the other? I know it's already been mentioned by you guys but maybe there is indeed something to breaking the bone in two separate areas and increasing bone length to a lesser extent in two areas than entirely in one area in order to mitigate soft tissue adaptation complications. I'm also wondering if exogenous HGH injections or increasing endogenous HGH with peptide secretagogues (oral or injected) during recovery would help the soft tissue adapt quicker and ideally at the same rate as the bone is growing. Does anyone know if supranatural HGH supplementation is part of the LL recovery protocol or has it been suggested by any of the doctors?
