Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Sorry to hear you had had a fracture.
Healing after surgery for fracture is a gradual/progressive process.However, avoiding stressing the leg by using your crutch during the recovery period will help to control pain and in the consolidation process.You will be able to walk again. Just be patient for the normal healing process to go on.I will also recommend healthy diet.
Hope this will help
Wish you a speedy recovery
