any idea what happen to my leg?
need help/ opinion on what happen to my bone
Please tell us what part of the leg you are unable to move.
Are you saying that you cannot dorsiflex your ankle joint?
If so, you have peroneal nerve palsy.
i just have a slight bump on the breakage site. i just want to know what happen. i cant move around much because of the bump in the picture. its not my ankles.
i looked it up and it can be a herniated muscle bump. so im not sure just yet.
It was on osteotomy site nothing to worry. Your doctor didn't break your bone properly at the time of osteotomy. But still you need xray to know now in which way bone get fracture. If it is till screw site , you are in trouble

'i can't move my leg up like before' does not seem to mean that your leg is paralyzed, but that you are worried about swelling in your leg and don't want to move it.
It could be a herniated muscle bump as you say, in which case no worries.
By the way, you need a doctor's opinion after all, but can't you get one on the weekend?
Which doctor did it?
im going to get an xray in 10 days. the guys around me dont know what it is. i havent called my doctor yet
Who is your surgeon. Where did you do this surgery?
my surgeon is Dr.Doan and i did it in Hanoi Vietnam. im not doing much these days. my fibula is in really bad pain after moving with the heel shoe too hard. my butt is also in bruises.
