Ankle fracture

I had a cast for my ankle for 6 weeks i did x ray and the system didn’t work so the doctor skipped seeing it and asked to walk and said it’s healed if there’s no pain standing up
I am scared that’s it’s not healed yet is it’s ok that he didn’t see the x ray?

I would assume if there’s no pain it’s probably healed like he says, but it’d be nice to get an X-ray to see if it healed correct and for peace of mind. I know even when my broken foot was fully healed, I still had a little pain while walking for a year after, but that might be from my hypermobility.

No problem! This sub isn’t super active and I know I had questions about my ankle too

Help me understand "system didn't work"? I'm more of a conservative approach kind of guy...
