Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Dear All,
On Easter DH broke the fibula of his leg. He was fixed in surgery - no cast.
With crutches he had only slight swelling, but they got worse since end of May, when docs recommended to try walking without.
X-rays are ok.
Docs recommend to be patient, physical therapy is ok but doesn't help much, surgical stocking either.
None of us or family has experience with broken legs, so:
What are your experiences with broken legs?
How long did the swelling take?
What treatment did help against swelling?
Chris, concerned.
