- I have a question about the episode How to Use Pain to Become the Best In the World | Rodney Mullen on Impact Theory and the clip Overcoming Pain. When I was in high school, I snapped my tibia clean, and they put a metal rod in the bone from my knee to my ankle. That was 15 years ago. For the last couple of years, any time I do something high-impact, I experience really bad pain at the site of the injury, sometimes resulting in bruising or a limp for a few days. I'm curious if you might know why this happens and what things I can do to help alleviate the pain so I can at least run again.
