In a cast for 6 weeks! The hospital said it was really unusual to break this bone as it is a really big, thick one.

His foot and ankle used to swell up for weeks after

Maybe you tore the ligaments. I tore my knee ligaments skiing once and it felt like there was nothing keeping my knee stable. Weird. I would suggest a trip to your GP.

My DH tore the logaments in his foot and the plaster helped stabilise them whilst they healed.

Good Luck with GP today xx
