Question:

I broke my tib/fib. i have 2 metal plates and 13 screws. how long till i can walk again.?

6wks ago i fell and broke my tib/fib. i had my cast removed today and the dr told me to still have no weight bearing on it till i see him again in 3 weeks, which will make it 9 wks by then. i still have swelling, esp when i am not keeping it up, but i do stay reclined most of the time. does anyone know how long this misery will last. i haven't been to wal mart in 6wks. what do i have to look forward to.


Answers:

it's going to be awhile. you could always go to walmart and use those neato electric carts you know. those look like so much fun and you'd have a great excuse for using it.
