A fracture of the distal left fibula is a relatively common condition in clinical practice, and the cause is mostly due to direct or indirect external forces. There is no definitive time frame for how long a patient can walk after a distal left fibula fracture, as it depends on the age of the patient and the extent of the fracture. If the fracture of the distal left fibula occurs in a child, it is a linear fracture, which is treated conservatively by applying a local plaster to activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, as well as external fixation with a plaster support or brace. If an adult has a fracture of the left fibula combined with a dislocation of the talus, surgical treatment is performed by incision and internal fixation with a plate, and walking on the ground is usually considered 6-7 weeks after surgery. After a left fibula fracture, it is important to take X-rays of the fracture site before walking on the ground to make sure that the fracture is in a good position and the fracture end is growing well before considering walking on the ground.
