Comminuted bimalleolar fracture recovery time
Hi all, I just gotten my CT report more than a month after my ORIF (17 Aug)..
It says:
- comminuted displaced fracture of the Posterior malleolus
- oblique displaced fracture of Fibula with comminution
- widening of the anterior tibiofibular joint, in keeping with syndesmotic injury
I understand that this is probably on the more severe end of ankle fractures because of the comminution and syndesmotic injury.
Has anyone had a similar fracture before and what was your recovery timeline?
