Xray when consolidated
« on: April 13, 2018, 03:22:19 PM »
Does anyone who did LL have an xray from when they were cleared to fully weight bear by their doctor? Just want to know what to look for as I'm in the consolidation phase.

No pain and everything has gone smoothly imo. Just hoping to be able to walk unaided soon.

So you had a nail too. I think that in 1 month you could walk unaided.
If you didnt have a nail you'll need about 3 months.
