My daughter runs Div 1 track - 5 time All American. She broke her foot (navicular) and it took 8 to 9 months to heal and the surgeon said that was fast. Even though the x-ray/MRI shows fully healed it still swells when she runs. Surgeon said post healing swelling was normal and will last for up to 3 months. Dobson might have healed but still swells up during the game/practice so is not the best choice on game day. Could be nothing to do with his ability or play book knowledge.
I believe it. I tore my labrum in my hip and had it operated on in April, around the same time Dobson had his foot surgery. I'm finally able to cut on it now and even at that, it's been a war trying to get the strength even on both sides. I know I'm not a pro athlete, but I did physical therapy 3 days a week, 2 hours a pop for 4 months. I'm sure Dobsons surgery was more evasive than a labrum repair. Hope your daughter has a full recovery, hard work pays off!
