A broken fibula is rather severe. What you should do is each week try and put more and more weight on it so that it gets used to the strain which will eventually heal. If you do that each weak it should take about 12-18 weeks, depending on you.

US lead off runner Manteo Mitchell in the 4x400 relay (he had broken his left fibula)
i tripped and fell and whacked the bone on the outside of my ankle. it is discolored and is kind of bruised. it hurts to walk and i am having trouble moving my toes. my foot is numb and tingles everynow and then. did i possibly break it? can you walk on a broken fibula?
There's the femur (thigh bone), then there's the tibia and fibula. There are also the tarsal and metatarsals in your ankle and feet, respectively.The Latin medical prefix for the upper leg is "femoral" and the front of the lower leg is "crural." The back of the calf is known as "sural."
Of course you can, but I think it would be an interesting fall to watch.

Recovery time for a broken tibia and fibula can vary depending on the severity of the fracture and individual healing factors. It typically takes around 6-12 weeks for the bones to heal, but physical therapy and rehabilitation may be necessary to regain strength and mobility. Consult with a healthcare provider for an accurate assessment of your specific situation.
To fix a broken fibula and tibia, a surgeon may perform surgery to realign the bones and stabilize them with plates, screws, or rods. Post-surgery, the leg may be immobilized in a cast or brace to allow for proper healing. Physical therapy will likely be required to regain strength and range of motion in the leg.
The fibula is lateral to the tibia.
The medial malleolus is located on the tibia. The fibula forms the lateral malleolus.
No you cant because crutches are more useful and you can keep with you at all times of the day
The fibula is lateral to the tibia. The fibula is the smaller of the two lower leg bones.
