Broken foot
I am abroad travelling. Two months ago I fell down a curb and Twisted my ankle. I thought I had sprained it but pain seems to be getting worse and travelling up my leg. I went to hospital two days ago and X-ray shows two fractures on both sides of foot, avascular necrosis. They cannot put me in cast as cysts are growing on soft tissue. I have been told no thrombosis as of yet I have a lot of time left here in Greece but they say I need surgery. Can I go on in the boot or do I need to fly home
