About 4 weeks. The good thing is that the fibula is not the main weight bearing bone in your leg. Follow your doctor's instructions. Hairlines usually heal more quickly than full fractures.

6-8 weeks. even with being a non weight-bearing bone of the decrease leg, the muscle tissues of the foot do hook up with it, making it painful to stroll on. save following physician's orders on limitations and you'd be back to favourite in approximately yet another month.
