I felled off from first floor, and got my ankle broken. I got plastered for 45 days and got removed after that when I am in my college. For holidays when I came to my home went to another doctor since the pain was not gone. We got a ct scan and x rays. The doctor gave an ankle binder. And said to walk slowly by wearing that and using a support stick in hand. But he said that the bone was still not healed. We waited for more 3 weeks. But the pain was still the same as starting. Then we went to another doctor in the city. There he suggested not to put weight on the leg and gave an aircast shoe to walk with. Again we went to a government hospital for suggestion of the doctor. There the doctor said the leg should be casted again. And said to come the next day. When we went next day, another doctor was there on duty and now he suggested not to get casted again and suggested to walk slowly. Now we are in confusion what to do either walk slowly or not to put weight on it by using air cast shoe.

It seems a cae of stiffness. So go for ankle exercises meeting a good physiotherapist. He will reeducate your leg movements slowly and progressively.
