Hi everyone! I fractured my right talus body 7 months ago, undisplaced and I was in cast for 3 months after injury. Then was in crutches for another one month. Now I am walking normal but after long walk there is always pain in my ankle and I start limping especially in the evenings. I can't still run yet. I am afraid of running or jogging now. For instance, I can be walking for 3-4 kilometres a day but not more than that. And İ always try to care about my ankle. Will this kind of injuries heal fully or not? How much time does it take to heal? I want to run, jog and play sports. Thank for your suggestions.

    Hi any fracture is a slow process to repair and your definitely doing the right thing which is too exercise it as much as you can but not to overdo it.

    Have you been to see you doctor and asked for a referral to physio and hydrotherapy, both will aid your recovery but please do remember not going to be a fast heal, maybe an x-ray to check out the healing state
