See details: Specific food will not help. Immobilization and orthopedic care will help. Your question is confusing so if this answer does not help you may want to resubmit it.

FRACTURE OF TIBIA: General rule for healing of upper extremity bones is 6 weeks and lower extremity bones 12 weeks. Younger kids' bone heals faster. Your son is definitely on cast i believe, as he has a tibial fracture. About food: there is no special diet, a regular balanced diet is needed with fresh fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, egg, milk, etc.
