Fractured fibula

2017-04-27 12:34:37
My fibula has two fractures because of a fall from basketball I dont know how to post the picture of the x Ray here but the fibula is really bent and it is really not in a straight line as it seems before. I have been in a cast for about 2 and a half weeks now and I do not feel that much pain at all anymore. My only concern is that a doctor said that my fibula will heal but it will be bent. Can I still play basketball even if my fibula heals in a bent position?

Please consult one more orthopaedic surgeon for this. Not sure if your fracture is dislocated Did he discuss any surgery options?
