how long does it take to start walking after breaking tibia/fibula?


Question:
clean brake from football, put a rod inside the bone and a few screws doctor said maybe 8 weeks?... i was wondering if anybody else has done this or knows anything about something like this .....wondering how long till i could start walking

Answers:
Majorly depends if it heals quickly or if there's complications. I'd say anywhere from 1-4 weeks after you get the cast off.
you can start walking when the cast comes off. i would not start any sooner because you do not want to cause any more dammage
