Graphene Soccer Shin Guard protect the lower leg (with the development of technology, some shin guards can also protect the ankle), so they are also called shin guards. Because of the high antagonism in football, it is very common for players to be kicked to the calf. In physics, Graphene Soccer Shin Guard are used to disperse and cushion the pressure and momentum exerted on the lower legs, so as to protect the players. The leg guards are generally rigid plates, which can disperse the force exerted by the other leg and shoes. In addition, the space between the leg guard board and the leg can play a buffering role, and the skin between the leg bone and the leg guard board can also play a buffering role to prevent fracture.
So what are the hazards of not wearing the shinguard? The tibia or fibula fracture can occur when the player does not wear the shin guard board and acts violently on the lower leg. In serious cases, it can lead to thigh femur fracture or knee cruciate ligament tear. Shin guards can reduce the incidence of leg fracture. When tibia fracture, lower limbs can not bear body weight, so it is easy to break. The diagnosis of fibula fracture is relatively difficult, because fibula is a non bearing bone, even if the fracture occurs, athletes can continue to play. Because fibula is a non bearing bone, the stress is less, so the fracture healing time is longer. FIFA forces athletes to wear shin guards when they participate in the competition (see Chapter 4 of the football rules for details: football players must wear shin guards made of plastic, rubber and other similar materials, and the shin guards must be completely covered by football socks) to avoid leg fracture. The treatment of fibula fracture in football players is not very different from other events, but because football players themselves have higher requirements on calf muscles, it takes a relatively long time to fully recover enough to play football again.
