I had ORIF on my left ankle 10 weeks ago for A BAD bimalleolar fracture (broke both ankle bones that stick out off and broke the small leg bone also).Have 1 plate and 11 screws to repair breaks. I have been weightbearing for about 4 weeks with boot with no crutches.
Both for post-operative injuries and those fractures that do not require surgery, the use of an immobilizer boot will be required. Depending on the nature of the fracture you may or may not have to keep all weight off the leg as it heals. Fractures in general take six to eight weeks to completely heal. Fibula fractures occur generally with trauma or are associated with lateral ankle sprains. â¢ Fractures of the fibula do not always require surgery. Size, location, and stability of the fracture will determine if you are a surgical candidate. â¢ Fractures will require immobilization and six to eight weeks to heal.
