Hey guys. I'm a 15-year-old competitive tennis player who just broke the growth plate in my right ankle and left wrist due to a hard fall. I'm a left-handed tennis player, and I have my biggest tournament of the year on October 17th and 18th. I am currently wearing braces on both areas, and my doctor said there is an 80% chance I can play the tourney. I could only play if there was no swelling on either area. Has anybody else encountered a growth plate breakage to the wrist or ankle and if so I'd love your insight towards my recovery time and health by the tournament date. All comments/advice welcome. Thanks.
