On going back the doctor decided to leave me in a cast for a further 4 weeks and then get checked out again. I did so and last tue i got the cast off, however the doctor said he would have hoped for more bone growth at this stage (looking at the xrays) and something about a lack of calcification? He then told me to put a little weight on it and come back in 4 weeks... As you can probably tell the local fracture department is somewhat of a conveyer belt so i was unable to ask many questions and he offered me little advice! What i want to know is, should I try walking more or less without the crutches - am i doing more damage if i put my whole weight on it? I still have some pain and it feels strange but i suppose that's to be expected. Would it have been better to have gotten the bones manipulated into place? And happens if it doesnt heal? I want to get back to work as soon as possible (Im a primary teacher which required good mobility) but i dont know what is advisable. Just wondering if anyone has any advice? Should i seed a second oppinion?
