Question - Broken Fibula and Dislocated Ankle

by Diego
(Los Angeles)

I had surgery on June 18th of 2008. I'm on a boot and i could put pressure on my foot already. The question is that what type of exercise can i do to make my foot and ankle stronger. i also have a swimming pool what type of exercises can i do in it? and would it help my ankle and leg? it's still a bit swollen though but doctors instructed that i could put pressure on it already.

At this point in your recovery it is important that you not do too much. I would recommend talking to your doctor about specific exercises you should or should not be doing. A referral to a therapist would also be beneficial, as that would give you the best guide for your exercise progression.
