Message: [QUOTE="Doctor Hoop, post: 2456585, member: 6845"] Without getting too specific, some of that depends on the age of your son and the level of football. I'm assuming high school. If that's the case, then I would be a bit more cautious on the time frame. My experience is that for a contact/collision sport like football you will want no less than 8 weeks, most likely 10, and xrays that show really solid healing. For example, Aaron Rodgers is now 7 weeks out, but the earliest they are considering putting him in game situations is 2 weeks from now, 9 weeks out. Briefly, I might wait a couple weeks more before contact/collision. And that assumes that the xrays look fabulous. [/QUOTE]
