View allHow long does it usually take for a tibia-shin bone fracture near the ankle to heal? And when might I be able to start walking again? Also, what should I expect regarding a full recovery?
The healing time for a tibiashin bone fracture can vary depending on the severity of the fracture. In general, it can take around 6 to 8 weeks for the fracture to heal. However, it may take longer for full recovery, which can range from several months to a year. After the initial healing period, a person may be able to start walking with the help of crutches or a walking boot. It is important to follow your doctor's advice on when it is safe to start walking again to avoid any complications. Physical therapy may also be recommended to help regain strength and mobility in the affected leg.

I've been having mild pain in my left inner elbow and forearm, especially after using my phone or laptop for a while. I already have ulnar nerve subluxation in my right elbow and surgery is planned for that, but this left side pain is different no tingling or subluxation, just discomfort that eases with massage. Could this be related to overuse or something else I should be concerned about
The mild pain in your left inner elbow and forearm, especially after using your phone or laptop, could be related to overuse or a similar condition to your right elbow's ulnar nerve subluxation, but without the tingling or subluxation. While it's different from your right elbow, it's still worth investigating. Since it eases with massage, it may be a less severe form of nerve irritation or muscle strain. However, it's wise to consult with a doctor or physical therapist to rule out other potential issues and get personalized advice.
