Some swelling after plaster removal is expected. I presume that your doctor has checked that the fibula is United and that's why is he's taken the Plaster off. Try to keep your leg elevated and keep moving ankle and toes. If symptoms does not resolve get a fresh x-ray of the ankle AP and Lateral view weight bearing.
