for me lumabas man buto nya o hindi, just the same thing . bones regenerate and it will be back to normal, he just need to build his muscles back. kung di man sya makapaglaro with the same intensity, it will all be psychological.
i had the same kind of injury 2 yrs ago, had a complete fracture of my humerus-left arm. my ortho-surgeon placed a metal internally to connect them(to have a proper healing) then im now back to normal. it is weaker because im not athletic nor do i go to gym, which i should do.
*but i can carry/lift things(beds,cabinet), pag mejo bumigat na may nginig na.
