Talus contusion without cortical break depends on how much portion of subarticular trabeculae have broken and the percentage of the bone involved. Yes it involves around the neck and weight bearing articular surface. However generally these need atleast 3 to 6 months of protected weight bearing. If you are office going then that is fine by now to do as long as somebody is there to drop you to work. If you are gym goer and athlete plz avoid for 6 months. Get an interval MRI scan at 6 months from time of injury and make sure no avascular necrosis has occured because of precarious vascularity of this bone and follow your orthopaedician advice
