Ankle fracture
Hello,
I got ankle fracture in 2 places in left leg and did a surgery last Tuesday, they intimated that they ve kept 2 screw and a plate.
Let me know when can I start walking normally without any pain. Feeling so depressed just lying in bed. And I have a 3 months old baby, which makes me so worried cuz I can't take care of him.
