50+ fractures below the knee. No fractures above the knee. I was told the full-length rod was necessary to save the leg below the knee. I was told there was damage to the knee. But I was not told to what extent. Car accident

What a nightmare, I'm so sorry. That's a terrible decision to have to face. 50 fractures below the knee must have left your tibia and fibula like dust.

Now figuring out what to do with the knee. I mean if you can't bend the knee, what do they do with it?

I hope you find some answers Elliot and I'm sorry for what happened.
