screws and plates in ankle recovery timeline
by Suzanne
(Tennessee)
I have a bi-malleoular fracture (I am certain I didn't spell that right!) in my ankle and had surgery to put a plate and screws in the bones to make them stable and heal aligned. I am now in 4 weeks post op and have one more week to go before I can begin partial weight bearing walking with a removable cast.
My question is when can I begin to stretch my ankle?
My other question is about how long until I am able to walk without a limp or pain?
Thank you and great, great website!
