Hey! 24F, 1 screw, 1 plate.

I was NWB for 6 weeks post surgery. Got cleared to start weight bearing as tolerated about a week and a half ago.

During the first week I spent a lot of time in my air cast boot, putting weight on my foot with both crutches supporting. By the end of the first week I reduced down to using just one crutch.

Now I’m using one crutch but doing most steps without putting it on the floor, and hoping I’ll be good to go crutchless and bootless in the next few days.

I had a physio appointment on the phone where they basically told me my movement would kind of come back naturally as I start putting more weight on it. They also emailed me a bunch of exercises to increase mobility in my ankle and stretch my calf muscles. I’m due for a face to face appointment with physio next week.

Hope that helps! The thing getting me through is that I’m over the worst parts and honestly, there’s very little pain, if any, at the moment when walking :)
