Can broken tibia and fibula recover with surgery

2018-09-12 04:14:40
I fell down from my bike yesterday. I had severe pain so was advised a X ray. It says that I have a broken tibia and fibula. I am 31 year old male. Will surgery help to recover from broken tibia and fibula bones? Is it worth doing a surgery?

Surgery has its own advantages of early mobilisation and anatomical reconstruction of broken parts. It is wise to choose surgery as it gives predictable results.
