Fell in Turkey was told I broke my Fib, Tib and two bones in the ankle. My ankle was turned almost 90 degrees. They manipulated this without drug relief and I was put into a cast up to the thigh, and flew home 3 weeks later. On my return to the UK I was told that I had only broken the Fib and twisted the ankle although to me the x rays from Turkey clearly showed breaks in the ankle, but was informed that they were poor quality. I was then told that I need a screw in the ankle even though it wasnt broken. When I went to outpatients I was informed that no screws were used and that they just examined it under anasthetic. I was placed in a walking boot and discharged with no follow up. The fib is still very painful and I cannot put full weight on the ankle I am walking on my toes. When I enquired as to whether it should still be in plaster I was told no it will heal on its own. It is now 7 weeks on and I am still walking with a frame. When I last saw the consultant I actually talked to him in the .corridor I didnt even get as far as his office.Is the pain in the fib normal after this length of time i feel i am no further forward, i am reluctant to ring the hospital as i dont want to come across as a moaner, but i am now back on pain killers every 2 - 4 hours
