Lateral condyle fracture Tibia

2018-06-17 09:06:31
I met with accident on 22nd April and injured my left leg with lateral condyle fracture left proximal tibia split depression type with tear body of lateral meniscus. My leg got operated on 24th April with meniscus repair surgery & ORIF with cc screws & plates. As on today 8th week, doctor told not to put weight bearing till 11th week& instructed to do ROM exercise & theraband exercise. I am afraid about the recovery time of my leg. Please suggest when i can walk normal without crutches
