Possible: Weakness to the foot after a fracture can be due to a number of causes, including plantar fasciitis. Best to see your family doctor or orthopedist to confirm a diagnosis and provide you a treatment plan.

Yes: First, see an orthopedic surgeon to see if there is a problem with the bones/joints or nerves of the foot or ankle. Next, physical therapy is still a good idea and might help with the weakness and plantar fasciitis. Never too late to do rehab.
