I broke my fibula a week ago. since then it has been on cast but i still feel some pain when the leg goes down from the bed. is this normal?

Fibula: Pain can still persist and is quite normal. What is not normal is worsening pain, swelling, blue discoloration of the foot or toes if you can see them.
