My leg continues to improve. I am still a week or so away from my next appointment with my surgeon. At that time more X-rays will be taken and then the healing of my broken fibula will be assessed. Although the incision is still a little raw and tender, it is a lot better than it was just a couple of weeks ago. The bone seems to be healing well, at least based on my assessment. If I put my foot down heavily, on an uneven surface, the flexing of my ankle causes some mild pain. But most of the time it is fine, and only after walking on it for extended periods do I experience some fatigue and swelling. I'm hopeful that the next assessment will give me the green light to consider some more significant rehab. Perhaps some physiotherapy or at least a return to more strenuous activity.
