On 9-29-09 i shattered my ankle.. both tib and fib....
I had surgery with a plate on each bone with about 14 screws....
Today is the 6th week ...The xrays still show a crack in the larger bone but the doc said we can move to a walking boot just no pressure on it... he wants me to start moving my ankle and stretching it....I thought it seemed a little soon....
Is this normal...??? I am 36 so I know my bones don;t heal like the young ones... but Usually i am in a hurry to get out of a cast but not really this time???? he was thinking maybe in another 2 weeks to start putting pressure....
any thoughts???q
