Hi @ooshaleigh and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I know that @skeleton recently posted in our Neuropathy group about bike riding and that they had 3 femur breaks, titanium rod in each femur, plus a trapped nerve at the perineal. Perhaps they can share their experience with you. @skeleton have you had any knee issues with your rod and pins?

@ooshaleigh, Have you talked to a physician about your options yet?

I am in PT getting infrared treatments twice a week. I need a knee replacement but I cannot have surgery because of the trapped nerve. It did not untrap like we had hoped. The risk of trying to untrap is too risky. I pray a lot. Good luck to you.❤️💛💜💙💚🧡🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹
