Hi Welcome to healhcaremagic After going through your query I concluded that your mother have got fracture of ankle. Fracture of ankle required accurate alignment, so it requires surgery. She is already late for consultations with Orthopedic surgeon. You want to know that whether she is too late to be operated by open reduction and internal fixation by operation. Fracture union takes at least two months. It has not united yet. You should get her operated to achieve the proper alignment. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don t hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you a good health. Take care.
