    Re: Stiff leg after left leg taken out of 6 week cast from broken femur / knee / foot

    It might help your leg to bend more but will exhaust the leg muscles and might increase the pain as well. So, you should start some of the exercises on regular basis; like hamstring stretch, quadriceps stretch, forward bend and calf raise.

    Re: Stiff leg after left leg taken out of 6 week cast from broken femur / knee / foot

    ok thanks for the reply. im just really worried that it wont bed normally again. it also feel like when i put my left foot on the floor, that the right leg feels longer as the heel of the left foot doesnt touch the floor. is this just the swelling or the fact that i cant extend my leg from the knee as well. will the metal on my femur stop growth ?
