could be lots longer due to leg being a weight bearing joint
Depends on if it it tibia, fibula, or femur and depends on how bad the break it
but yes, overall it is about 6-8 weeks for a normal non-weight bearing bone break.

It normally takes 6-8 wks but this all depends on the fracture you have substained,the location off the fracture,your age,and weather you need surgery or not.

normally it takes six weeks but when they take the cast off they may tell you its not fully healed and it needs another week or they could say its fine it really depends on alot of factors including how you normally recover
