How long to heal a broken ankle?

How long will it take for a broken ankle to heal, and how long will I need to do physio?

  • ok my story is I was run down by a truck and it ran over my ankle making a clean break in 2 parts and a fracture in another. I have 3 screws 2 plates, and 1 rod which the doctor may take out in 3 months.. we dont know for sure. i've had 2 plaster casts and im wearing my last one hopefully and it is a fibreglass cast. The doctor said i'll be in physiothrapy but I want to know ballpark figure when i'll be back to normalcy. I am 15 and weigh 115 pounds, if that goes into consideration.. nobody tell me to ask my doctor because i wont be seeing him until november 4 and i cant wait that long! please give me good answers thanks!
