I have a broken fibula, its a clean lateral break two inches above the ankle. It has been 5 days since the accident and being in the military stationed in Korea, there is a problem with Tricare getting me to a base 3 hours away to see the ortho doctor. Right now i am wearing a splint held together with ace bandages.
When the X-rays were taken the day after the break, the bone was perfectly in place... now 5 days later could it be aligned differently, could the healing have started already, and how bad will it be if its not perfectly inplace when it is healed?
