i broke my tibia and fibula 17 days ago and i have a short cast on my leg. the fibula broke up towards my knee and my tibia twisted and broke towards my ankle. my doctor said we basically only have to worry about the tibia on a count that the fibula was aligned and would be fine . i did not need surgery. was wondering on an estimated recovery time???
Hi, thank you for providing a brief history of your illness. Usually Lower limb healing takes about 6-8 weeks depending upon your personal habits like Chat Doctor.  Please follow the surgeons guidelines and avoid putting any weight to the limb as the normal aligned healing is always good then maligned heal. Hope you will understand this. Taking a help from a physical therapist post the healing if your surgeon recommends you will be benefited further. With the grace of god I wish you a speedy recovery
