Tibia deformity
I had tibia fracture and had suregy with enders nailing. I had open fracture
After 3 months of full wound repair i had 2nd surgery with intramedullary rod fixation
But after surgery my leg is inverted from bottom side. My surgeon told me that it is 5-7 degree of rotational curve due to high injury trauma. But it will not cause any difficulty in day to day life after the fracture union.
I am sharing my leg pic and xray pic please examine it and tell me . Whether this rotational curve deformity will cause any difficulties in normal life like running etc. or not.
Currently walking on walker with 50% weight
2nd surgery is done 45 days ago.
