Thanks for your reply, its put my mind at ease. You just never know what is "normal" and when you should be concerned. I am including a scan of my X-ray print. I hope its clear enough. I am going to confirm with the doctors this week whether there was a third fracture as originally they said in three places, but there has been no mention of this third one since. I realise that some fracures would just heal without surgery so am just assuming that is the case as my ankle is immobilised to heal anyway. My suspicion is a small fracture somewhere in the talus/tibia/fibula meeting place, if that makes sense. Here is the image and I look forward to any further comments, thanks so much..

Ok Ok Ok I went to the hospital appointment today and queried the third fracture. Yep there was three so its a tri malleolar fracture with a third fracture on the inner left rear part or my tibia. Apparently it has healed well and did not need surgical repair. Also a difficult fracture to spot. My ankle is still not moving very far, now 5.5wks since the trauma. Orthopeadic doc says not to be concerned yet as i've had setbacks with surgical wound infections. He seemed to make comment that is would be a good few months yet. I am in my camboot, if i go out, but is not confortable. My ankle has next to now mobility where would a physio start? what treatments are used. Its not a pain ful thing to try and move it my ankle just wont move! Look forward to you comments on the xrays and your insight into physiotherapy treatment possibility, cheers
