Recent surgery.. fell on bad ankle..
I recently had surgery on my ankle on January 3rd and had 12 screws and a plate put into my ankle was told by my doctor I could start wieght bearing on February 22nd . I recently fell last Friday without my cast on because it got soaked by accident when I took a shower and I fell on my bad ankle pretty hard.. I'm just wondering what the pain would be like if I re-home it? Or if I lossen anything. It is very swollen still but doesn't hurt much but if I walk in my AirCast for awhile it hurt now
