I am David, 46 years old with very good health. 5 months ago I slipped on wet leaves, spun around and had an open tib/fib fx about 3 in above the ankle. The tibia was fixed with plates and screws which will be permanent. Now I can walk with a small limp, have had no physical therapy. On the last ortho visit I found the the fibula fx had not been fixed at all. The doctor said there was no reason to resolve the fibula fx. Would it not be a good idea to resolve both of these fractures ? I am confused and concerned about what actions should be taken at this point. Do you have an opinion on this issue ? Thank you.
