“Players who took the drugs suffered more disc herniations and injuries to their knees, elbows, necks, spines, feet, toes and ankles than those who didn’t use 'roids. For example, 21 percent of those who used the drugs said they'd suffered herniated discs, compared to 10 percent of players who didn’t take them. Nearly 31 percent of users hurt their elbows, versus 17 percent of non-steroid users. ”

That article indicates that a lot of players suffer soft tissue injuries that never use steroids.
So how exactly do you tell if an injury is due to steroid use or not?
And you still have not explained how a cracked bone in Lawsons hip was caused by steroid use.
