So broke my leg 5 weeks ago. Serious agony for the first 2 weeks and very difficult life wise as I was basically housebound.
Anyway. Three days ago the pain subsided enough for me to attempt to walk on it. I'm now basically hobbling but it's still really painful. Also, the hobbling is causing pain in my knee and the top of my hip.
Saw Dr yesterday who said it should be a lot better by now and was confused by the level of bruising I still have. He wants me back in 3 weeks to re-xray/check etc.
In the meantime, I have two toddlers I now need to run around after! (!)
If you've broken your leg, how long did it take before you were walking normally again not in pain? Right now, I can't see me ever doing normal things again! Feeling a little down.
