It depends on where the fracture is. 1. Upper 1/4 th portion -- An important nerve called peroneal nerve may be injured. 2. Middle portion -- Usually safe to leave alone if tibia is not broken. 3. Lower 1/4th portion -- Almost always treated by plaster or surgery. You need to consult an orthopaedic surgeon for best advice as it is impossible to give an ideal treatment without looking at the xray.
