How soon can I walk with a minor external ankle fracture?

Minor external ankle bone fracture can usually walk on the ground in 4~6 weeks.
Minor ankle fracture is commonly seen in ankle sprain, car accident, violent blows, etc. Under the action of violence, the outer ankle is slightly fractured, but not completely broken, mostly accompanied by soft tissue injuries such as muscles and tendons around the ankle joint, which manifests itself as ankle pain, swelling, difficulty in movement and other symptoms.
External ankle fracture requires external immobilization with plaster, avoiding the affected limb from going down to the ground to promote the recovery of the injury. Generally 4~6 weeks after treatment, you can walk on the ground, the specific recovery time needs to be judged according to the injury recovery. If the bone and soft tissue damage is heavy, the foundation of the body is poor, and the blood circulation of the lower limb is not good, the recovery time is relatively long, and vice versa is shorter.
It is recommended to consult a doctor in time after the fracture of the ankle, improve the relevant examination, under the guidance of a professional doctor.
