Pain and stiff ankle after tibia nailing

2019-02-03 12:52:44
I underwent a surgery on 30/12/18 for a left leg fracture(tibia nailing). Was able to put my foot down without applying pressure after 3 weeks. But for the past two days have been feeling a stiff ankle and difficulty in putting my foot while walking with frame. Is this normal or any issues that I have to meet my surgeon?. I was advised to visit after 2 more weeks. Is this some emergency??
