I took a big fall at work four Months ago resulting in the breaking of my right Tibia bone and crushing my right Ankle joint. It turns out that after repairing my leg my bones shifted a little bit because of some Ankle bone that choose not to heal like the rest of me. Im 50 years old and pretty healthy other wise and not dealing with arthritis, just the discomfort of numbness , soar muscles and it feels like Im walking on marbles.

Im hoping to get some good insite on if an Ankle fusion or Ankle replacement is what im gonna be up against. any thoughts?
