I broke my ankle over 4 months ago- help please.

Posted , 6 users are following.

I broke my ankle on February 1st, I had to have an op., 1 plate and 8 screws inserted. I accept the pain but still did not expect the pain and leg swelling to be so bad nearly 5 months later. My physio has sent me for a scan for a DVT, no clot tyvm, but the pain in my ankle and leg is still horrendous. I can walk without aid now with a massive limp, I just want my leg to look normal.
