Once you have an moderate /severe injury and it ‘heals’, you are never quite the same again, especially if it requires medical intervention to fix it. Plating, pinning, external fixation, grafts, ligamental tears…never the same and there’s always some sort of pain which tends to get worse with age! Now if it’s an accident, then it cannot have been avoided, but if you have put yourself in the line of unreasonable risk (the definition of which varies from person-to-person) then in tuo capite fiat!
