hi...fracture of ankle even hairline will take long time to heal..because it is weigh bearing joint and these bone are under high pressure.
as per your concern of weakness it may occur normally after long duration rest.
as you started working muscle power will gain accordingly..
so till now dont worry...
keep fracture part immobile and take rest
