This is going to help me a lot I will be sharing this video. I just got my boot on last week. I had 3 fractures and a dislocated ankle. The doctor had to do surgery and put screws in my ankle. I will be doing this until I go back to my 4-week ankle checkup to get started with Therapy.

I have a trimalleolar ankle fracture and am on day 4 of a walking boot. The videos are great as I was not given information by my surgeon on any of this.

[@sportrehabguide]

Unfortunately surgeons aren’t trained in rehab management after surgery. They’ll dictate weight bearing status and when the boot comes off. Most leave the exercise to physical therapists/physios.

Thank you! I’m just a few days into week 2 and this is exactly what I needed to see! I just don’t know what range of motion is allowed.

[@yogeshpardhi97]

Good job💯👍 Thank you🙏

[@claudiacecchinato4586]

[@catherine9515]

Yes, thank you so much!!! These exercises are great. They’re helping.

[@sportrehabguide]

Glad you found them useful

[@jennwilliams1885]

Thank you! Im in week 3 of wearing my boot cast after breaking my ankle hiking.This will definitely help me recover faster

[@sportrehabguide]

Best of luck!

[@Lottiya]

Have you been in normal cast before the boot? Or was boot cast the first brace you got?

[@vinukerraochinthapatla3458]

Good

[@marwanalrabea1740]

Thank you for the expertise. Had an ankle sprain, how many reps and sets should I do?

[@sportrehabguide]

I can’t comment on your personal situation I’m afraid!Everyone will be different so always worth seeking professional advice in a healthcare setting!

[@marwanalrabea1740]

Thank you

[@NguyenManh-hw6li]

Can I use this Excercies for ATFL recovery?

[@sportrehabguide]

They can be routinely used for ankle sprains

[@Lottiya]

Is it normal that with the first exercise I can’t bring my foot down like it was shown? I have very little mobility and it’s mostly in bringing my foot up (sorry I don’t know how to describe it better).
I’m 3 weeks after a fracture.
Is it normal that the range of motion would be very small at that stage?

[@sportrehabguide]

Range of motion and stiffness is common a number weeks after routine ankle fractures. Always best to get it checked out if any concerns.

[@Lottiya]

@@sportrehabguide thank you for the reply :) I was at the doctors office yesterday and he recommended doing same exercise you have shown in the video (first one), so I will be trying it slowly- hopefully fuller range of motion will be back soon!
Your videos are very helpful :) Especially that they’re titled by number of weeks from fracture. Thank you!
Have a great day/night 🌟

@@sportrehabguide is it still normal after 11 weeks post op bimalleolar (plate on top of fib notch and pin& wire inner side of tibia tip). Only allowed passive pull n stretch and pump like the 1. One here. Not allowed to do soleus gastroc stretch, inversion& eversion, but allowed %100 weight, how will I increase the dorsiflexion in this case?

[@sportrehabguide]

Always best to contact your consultant on when those precautions can be lifted.

[@lucystanton5620]

Thankyou, is anterior pain normal? That hurts more than the ankle fracture itself, it's been 4 weeks...

[@sportrehabguide]

Lots of reasons why it can be normal and other reasons why it could be a secondary injury to the fracture. Everyone is going to be different, always best to get it checked out/assessed when catching up with surgeon/physio etc

[@lucystanton5620]

Thank you for replying!😇

[@Nadi.Khanum]

Im afraaid i cant do these for around 4 weeks cause of my cast.. 🥺
