Hi. I had the same injury. As I understand it from my surgeon, I would only have to remove the hardware (screws, plates, etc) if it bothered me and he said not at least for a year. That said, I'm not planning on it. I'm hoping with time I get accustomed to it. I'm a little more than 3 months post surgery and walking with a lot of stiffness and a limp but that's to be expected. My surgeon said it's a full year to feel like myself again, so hopefully in the next 9 months I will continue to see progress.
Best wishes to you!

I'm having 2/7 screws out next week after the same injury. I'm 9 weeks post surgery and happy to get them out. They are holding the tib and fib together to let the ligament heal

Each case is different. Your surgeon will be able to give you details about your own surgery
