5 weeks post fibula distal fracture and sprain. Is this normal??
The ortho said I can start walking in another week. I mentioned numbness and tingling and he seemed unconcerned.
I can move everything almost normally now but the ankle area remains swollen and it seems to be cutting off circulation to my foot.
(Right foot in pic) specifically blood seems to struggle to come back up. If I look at my left the veins are near the surface and on right invisible -
Thoughts? Should I push my GP for an ultrasound (?) or wait it out and start walking next week and see how it goes?
Anyone else have this and it went away?
Thanks!
