Ok just in case future LLer will read this this.

Dr Pili just replied to me, apparently every broken bone during the healing goes trough a phase called “bone remodelling” where the callus gets harder and is bigger compared to the original bone and during the years the bone should turn slowly like the original thickness, since tibias in that spot are surrounded from nothing but skin, sometimes you can notice the difference

I appreciate the information, everyone always says broken bone heals harder and stronger than original bone, I'm sure it will take a long time, but during my physical work and in the gym I will be sure to keep caution in mind.  LL is definitely something I wanna do no matter what my line of work tbh.
