Fracture in Fibula Head

I have a fracture on the Fibula head due to fall from bike 2 weeks ago. The doctor didn't apply any cast/plaster but advised to use hinged braces. Only cycling, sitting crossed legs, stairs up down is restricted by the doctor. But I'm walking minimally(Partial weight on the fractured leg) and time of the time sitting keeping my leg straight. Pain and swelling reduced. But stiffness around the knee and pain during flexion of the knee. Should it heal without cast/plaster and how many days would it take to walk normally?

Varicose veins

I have been suffering from varicose veins for 8 years. I have immense pain in my legs. Please suggest a medicine for the treatment of varicose veins.

Fibula head fracture

I have a fibula head fracture in Right Knee. The doctor advised not to do plaster and advised to use hinged braces. Would it heal without plaster?

Body parts problem.

Suddenly, my right hand feels numb and weak. I am also experiencing a mild pain in my right hand. Some time ago, I sustained an injury to my left knee, and that old injury has flared up again. I am finding it difficult to climb up to elevated places. I am very poor; I would be deeply grateful if someone could offer me some assistance.

Surgery Required
