| Re: Broken my Fibula...Now What?
Don't bear any weight means no walking for six weeks, you need to be on crutches. If you don't follow instructions, you'll be in too much pain to think or function, and of course, the bone won't heal properly.
Now, there are options. You could get a wheelchair, or a device called a knee scooter, to make it easier to get around. (The wheelchair is more efficient for long distances, but the knee scooter fits better in tight indoor spaces and allows you to stand.)
For now, just keep the leg propped up as much as possible, it's the best way to ease pain and swelling and promote healing.
