R Lower Leg, Fracture
2007-12-20 – 2008-07-08
Grade: 4
Landed hard from plyometrics at training, and ankle just gave way, massive crack heard by all. Hours and hours in A&E, Fracture Clinic following day, operation to put 2 screws in on 24th. Back to fracture clinic on 28th - weight bearing surgical boot for 4 weeks. Fracture Clinic on 25/01/08 - x-ray shows almost fully healed. Non-weight bearing activity for 4 weeks. Ditch crutches and boot. After 9 weeks started running. Felt fine.
Physio reckons a year to get back to where I was.
Discharged from physio just over 6 months after op - able to go back to full activity, mobility, stability and strength good.
