Ankle fractures can have varying degrees of severity depending on how many bones were broken and how much injury was sustained by the ankle ligaments.

When enough bone healing is noted on radiographs, typically around six weeks, then patients can start protected weightbearing. A foot and ankle specialist will be able to determine if additional immobilization will be needed or if physical therapy can be started. Recovery from most ankle fractures can take up to one year for full recovery, but most patients are starting to return to casual activities around three months. Again, a foot and ankle specialist should be consulted to determine proper timing to return to regular activities.
