Ankle Injury??Please Help?!!?!?!?!
Question: Ok so i fractured my ankle on March 12th and got a cast put on March 14th due to issues getting an appointment. I am goin this Friday, April 11th, to see if i can get the cast off. I should be going straight into a walking cast which brings me to my first question.....Is there any way i would be able to skip going into a walking cast??
Next , how long would it take ,after having a walking cast , for me to be allowed to start playing sports?
You see my coach for school baseball is saving a spot for me on the team. I should start but i probably wont the first couple games. There are 6 games in April and 8 games in May if there are no games postponed. I am hoping i will be fine to play all 8 of the games in May.
Do you think that this is a very goood possibility that i could play the enitre month of May?? and maybe even some of April

I think you will be in the walking cast until your ankle is healed, there is no set time because everybody heals at different rates.
I understand how important it is for you to play baseball this season, but if you push yourself before your ankle is ready, you may never completely recover. So maybe giving up one season, will enable you to play baseball for the rest of your life.
I know a good doctor in your area who can cut off your leg and turn it into a third arm for you! That way it won't completely go to waste (yes, you're screwed) :'(
I dont know, but I fractured my calcaneous which is the bone that is at the base of the heal. It required pins and a plate, I was unable to walk without crutches for atleast 6 months.
