Thanks for the update. Can you let us know how they made the diagnosis? did you have a followup MRI? The lateral malleolus is not weight-bearing but is is loaded with inversion/eversion of the ankle. This might suggest wearing a boot of some sort that lets you weight-bear through the tibia but prevents excessive strain to the lateral ligament complex.
