As a soon to graduate physio and someone moving into a static band 5 MSK position, I can't thank you enough for the time and dedication in putting your library of videos together, you have been an immense adjunct to traditional university studies thank you sir
Will! Thank you so much for your kind words! It’s an absolute pleasure to run this channel and to hear we have been able to help people just like you is a true privilege!
Thank you, you've just totally explained why I need surgery and why im having such a long recovery. I have a Weber C facture and tendon tear. My ankle was totally dislocated 90° right during a hiking accident. Finally someone who can explain it
Great video. I have a Webber B fracture on the left ankle and after 8 weeks am fine. I had a boot and was lucky that I could put a little weight on it to walk. I am very grateful to the medical staff whom helped my recovery. I did get a DVT because of the fracture but I’m ok as I’m on blood thinners.
Thank you for such an informative video!! I suffered a Weber A fracture on Christmas Day along with a 5th metatarsal and navicular bone fracture. I too developed a DVT by day 4. I’m presently using a bone growth stimulator. How long were you in PT? Do you feel like your ankle is stable now?
Thanks for this good information. I had a c fracture on my ancle both sides and surgery 3 month ago, I got a plate and 9 screws, I had a plaster for 8 (!) weeks and no weight put on the foot. the doctors told me NOTHING about it... still can hardly walk.
Great video very informative and helpful. I’m 2 weeks into a Weber A fracture, still painful and struggle to wiggle my toes or point my foot forward but hopefully all we be good in time
How are you doing? How is the recovery? I am at the beginning of this process 😢 just got my xray yesterday with Weber A. RICE non stop till I see the specialist in 3 days. Freaking out as I am 46 and never had a cast or surgery… surgery is giving me major anxiety.
Thank you for the explanations. I just broke my fibula (last week) 2-3 inches above the ankle. Foot is in a boot now and I hobble around with a forearm crutch. My concern is I've no plates or pins at present. Hope the future doesn't hold these if I don't need any - The question is I may be fit but I'm still 80 and that causes me concern.
Interesting, have Weber C, 3 weeks after plate and pins, I'm up on both feet and gingerly walking around the house. Did stairs at 4 weeks. No equipment. My ligaments as mentioned in the video did not seem torn as I had minimal pain. Being LMT, I totally agreed, delayed weight bearing extends healing. Thank you!
I'm there weeks post Weber c trimalleolar on my right ankle. And have the month old infant! Things are interesting to say the least. I'm so thankful the baby isn't mobile yet and I can't wait to return to walking!!
Great video, extremely well presented. I am currently 6 months post brake of my ankle, where I sustained a B type break. My pain was getting worse so my physio recommended I go back to the doctor and ask about getting an xray and ultra sound. Discovered the bone is still completely fractured.
Did you get surgery initially? I had a type B break, but the talar shift was around 3mm so they said my medial deltoid ligament was torn as well. I had a plate put on the bone 8 weeks ago and i'm walking, but i'm always concerned that it will break again.
hi ya i’ve a weber b stable fracture and i’ve no need for surgery, would it be very dangerous to play contact sports at the 6 weeks mark if my fracture is healed by the 5th week mark. im 5 days from the 5 week mark and that is when ite set to come off (my cast). since the break i’ve also been doing physio therapy keeping stength in my thai calf and glutes with ankle weights and various exercises so theirs minamul muscle loss and i’ve been stretching and maintaining core exerises since . i am also 16 and 17 in a month thanks if you can reply.
Very good information! I had a weber B stable fracture with a very very light displacement, i was told i didnt need the surgery and was put on aircast/NWB for 6 weeks, we did 3 xray within that time frame, after 6 weeks i was advised go WB and started PT, on my 11th weeks, the bone did not have any healing, we did a CT and it was a spiral through and through break, i did my surgery 5 weeks ago which was approx 12.5 weeks post injury, i was gutted, one plate 7 screws, so im hoping when my cast is off on 8sept there is really healing now, im so done with this injury.
I have a Weber B mildly displaced oblique fracture of the distal fibular at the snydesmosis level. At 22 days in I'm in a Ortho boot putting weight on it it's still swollen and a piece of my bone is jagged and it's still kind of sticking out and the surgeon said they'll probably be a bump there I'm just wondering is this going to heal and isn't it too early for me to be walking in a Maxtrax airwalker tall boot she says I can drive I don't feel stable I sleep with it on I only take it off to shower and I've been sponge bathing to cut down on taking showers and standing on it without the boot support.
@@dancetilldawn484 Sorry, I understand your concern. I am still swollen also. MY surgery was in September of 2022. I assumed, being confident in my MD, that I would heal and I did. I think you need to bring this back to your doctor. We are all different, and at 3 weeks I was very uncertain about getting around too. Maybe the PT here can provide some insight into the bone kinda sticking out. Can't respond to that. Good Luck! Second opinions are available, easier with insurance.
Fantastic video, one of the most informative and well broken down videos! I have a weber b spiral fracture of the fibula! At first the surgeons decided i needed surgery now they decided against surgery! I am at weight bearing phase at 8weeks! Any tips? Advice
Blessings doctor n everyone... First this pain is unbearable 😢 i had a weber b ankle fracture 8wks ago and my cast, My physiotherapy session is in a mth time so i definitely needs sum advice how to get things done as im on crutches😢 Need advice
@ClinicalPhysio I had a Weber C fracture, and the dr says that means I must have also torn my syndesmosis and deltoid ligaments. I had surgery to repair the broken fibula, as well as open reduction and internal fixation screwing my tibia and fibula together. The ligaments were NOT repaired through surgery. The dr says that because of the ORIF surgery that they will heal on their own over time. Is this true?
I had a weber c fracture and I'm just recently been able to put weight on my ankle after 5 weeks post surgery, still with 1 crutch and is very hard, hopefully I can start with no crutch next week and get back to some form of normal.
I have a Weber A fracture (due to an ankle roll) and was relieved and interested to hear your ccount of the details, and recovery method, and prognosis. Thank you.
I had surgery done due to weber C Stage 4 fracture. 3different opinions on weightbearing starts 6 weeks without removing the screw(follow up Ortho doctor) , 12 weeks after removal of the syndesmosis screw(my surgeon). which one is right?
Amazing video Khalid! Thanks 🙏 I had a surgery for my Weber b non-displaced fracture. After 3 weeks I still hear a small sound/space between the talus and tibia when I jab at it. But when I jab at my uninjured heel it feels very locked. Will this space will always be there?
Thank you for the wonderful information you may be the only one who points bloody dorsiflexion difficulties for the patients been told to do just one or two move, obviously just two moves are not enough most of us see very small improvement. Can this improvisation be achieved at home with some alternative exercises and how long one must do per day if we have no chance to access proper phsio therapy? What needs to be checked in terms of film scan etc in order to dorsiflex to recover if we access the phsio therapist? Who does the soft tissue damage- stickiness-stiffness check up except from the op and post op drs?
Hey I have a Bimalleolar Equivalent ankle fracture, Weber b distal fibula fracture. The orthopedic doctor said I tore my Deltoid ligament but I don't have any pain on the inside of my ankle wondering if I should get a second opinion. He said that Had I not torn the deltoid ligament I wouldn't need surgery. But we only did XRay so I'm confused how he can be certain it's torn.
Thank you for that iformativ video, now I can understand my Weber B fractur. Can you explain, how a Syndesmotic band can heal without the positionsscrew, which was taken out after 8 weeks of the fracture? Or can I get to be used do without the syndesmotic band and do Zumba in about 6 month after the fracture? I am 60 years old and without osteoporosis.
My lateral Malleolus the (Weber A fracture) was unable to be replaced back as it never retaken after so many months in a boot, Had to be removed then had hooks or something like that to attach the tendons , have you got a video on this as all vids show it being reattached I also think its worth mentioning I caught a blood clot in the lungs due to not being given blood thinning tablets t the time, then had to inject my self for a few months to break dissolve the clots
Sir I am From India Just i watching your video Trans syndesmotic fracture of the left lateral malleous is noted ( Weber type -B) Does i need surgery, I have no pain in my ankle, can walk some Please reply
I think my fracture would be considered a Weber A fracture? The fibula had an oblique fracture starting at the bottom and moving upwards (I got bucked off a horse and landed on my right foot, the ankle did not collapse, stayed straight up and down like a pile driver). I was in a cast and crutches for 3 weeks, then the ortho told me to stay in a walking boot for 3 weeks, but I’m having too much hip pain with that after 2 weeks so I’ve moved on to a lace up brace instead. I’m still having significant swelling of the entire calf and ankle once I’ve been on my feet for a while. Is this something I should be concerned about? Other than that I’m getting around fairly well now and don’t have a lot of pain anymore. Thank you for this very informative video. This is the best one I’ve found about this type of fracture.
I've heard that the swelling after the first 4-6 weeks can be ongoing for the next 3-6 months so I would not say it's sth concerning, If you are able to walk after 6 weeks with not a lot of pain you are good brother!! The doc put me in a bott yesterday after 3 weeks of wearing a cast, do you have any tips for the healing process?
Can you tell which fracture; high or low looking at MRI? Initially multiple X-ray did not show any fracture. MRI after two months shows effusion, a moderate to large joint effusion of the tibiotalar joint from the radiologist report.
Am recovering from a broken ankle (lateral malleous) though did not have surgery because it had minimal displacement. I have was in a cast for 9weeks,it was removed a week ago. Been experiencing a sharp excruciating pain on the heel when doing partial weight bearing. Wjat could be causing it?
I’ve just had a fibulae spiral fracture Weber c, they have isolated my leg in a cast but said surgery won’t be needed? Do you know roughly how long it will take to heal? Or when I can be walking on it again
Hi! Very difficult to tell from not knowing your case I’m afraid - what did your Orthopaedic team say for these questions? Wish you all the best with it
I have a Weber A fracture, after 6 weeks it is no where near healing. The hospital has taken the cast off and has given me a boot to wear for another 4 weeks. What usually happens next in these circumstances ?
Hi Dee Dee, no doubt your orthopaedic team will keep an eye on things and will check how things go with your XR’s. I would imagine they will re-XR in 4 weeks time after using the boot to check your healing process in order to make decisions with you. What those decisions are will depend on many factors… keep going?
Hello..I have same situation(weber A fracture )..after one month, my cast was removed but there is a gap clearly visible..they put me on boot...what is expected now?
Hi Dr... I had a lateral malleolus fracture weber A... Going to 6 weeks on fibrecast.. No need surgery... The bone healing well.. The dr wants to remove my cast and start physio... I want to wear cam boot while on physio... Which length should I choose long or short boot..? Please advice me... And your video is superb explanation.. I understand well.. Thank you Doc...
Hi! Please have this conversation with your local Dr, it’s much more important that they give you this advice based on the fact that they have been able to assess your fracture
How have you been? I broke my lateral malleolus and after 3 weeks doc put me in a boot, do you have anything to say to me to keep in mind or any tips for the healing process?
Hi I have a Weber B fracture and was told it's healing my cast wast taken off one day ago and was told I should try and walk gradually on foot..my check up is in three weeks time will do another x-ray and was told if it does not look good they will operate...i had my cast on since second of December and had no surgery...is this the right process I need and answer please..and will I be able to walk properly even if I didn't have surgery... please I need answers.🙏
PLEASE never take answers from people from the internet about this!!! The most important people to discuss this with are the doctors and therapists who can see your ankle and your x-rays!! It would be totally wrong and unprofessional of me to give you advice about your injury in this way 🙏🏼
Just here researching my own injury Weber b it's 2 days old they say they waiting for swelling to go down I could see something in the tibia as well hope I'm wrong 😅
