We were tipped off on Friday. Nothing gets by this board.Just read in the Courant that the surgery he had was to remove bone spurs which were caused by the injury. Goodman was right. That is a 2 to 4 week recovery. Likely closer to 4.
3 weeks makes the most sense. Returns for a Seton Hall game.It’s his left elbow and he s young
I’m hoping for 2 wks
Good karma.. All good.3 weeks makes the most sense. Returns for a Seton Hall game.
Yes. A trauma to a joint like an elbow can cause bone chipsWe were tipped off on Friday. Nothing gets by this board.
Bouk out indefinitely
Oh how this has revealed who we really are as a team. Hurley has forged a culture of effort, tenacity, no-quit ... and its bigger than any one player. The 2021 team’s expectations just got a lot higher..the-boneyard.com
Can bone spurs be caused by an injury?
That's what I thought. Need a doctor here. I just looked it up and spurs can be caused after an injury but it takes a long time for the spurs to form after the injury. So these couldn't be from the injury in the Marquette game.Bone spurs are not bone chips and are not normally caused by acute trauma.
I deleted my initial comment but wasn’t quick enough - I promised myself I wouldn’t get into speculative BY medical discussions because nothing is absolute and usually a one sentence blurb causes more confusion than its worth. My bad.That's what I thought. Need a doctor here. I just looked it up and spurs can be caused after an injury but it takes a long time for the spurs to form after the injury.

Causes of Bone Spurs
The most common cause of bone spurs is joint damage from osteoarthritis or degenerative joint disease. The cushioning between your joints and the bones of your spine can wear down with age. Rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and gout can also damage your joints.
Bone spurs also often form after an injury to a joint or tendon. When your body thinks your bone is damaged, it tries to fix it by adding bone to the injured area.

Hurley said in the St Johns pregame that we should expect him "closer to 4 weeks". paraphrased of course
Other than that bone spurs aren’t caused by an acute injury, this seems to be best case scenario, no ligament repair or reconstruction. Still, it will take time to restore range of motion, then functional strength, then sport specific use.Just read in the Courant that the surgery he had was to remove bone spurs which were caused by the injury.

I think they meant to say the opposite, that bone spurs contributed to the injury?Other than that bone spurs aren’t caused by an acute injury, this seems to be best case scenario, no ligament repair or reconstruction. Still, it will take time to restore range of motion, then functional strength, then sport specific use.
You can think of rehab using the letters in the word “safe” - the rehab needs to develop four components, strength, agility, flexibility, endurance. They don’t proceed in that order, it’s more like ‘f-s-a-e,’ but that doesn’t give you a slick acronym.
I feel your pain. I had them lower side to heel. Huge pain. Barely walk is an understatement.I have bone spurs on my heel and when they act up I can barely walk. It's not the spurs that hurt. The spurs cause inflammation in the soft tissue around the spurs. Very painful. He will be much better off having them removed. Wishing a full and speedy recovery to the lad.
