I hit in the ankle sprain.resulted rupture of a second degree & medical gypsum has worked for 1month but after the conquest has not been wound healing?

Time is on your Side: A month is not nearly enough time for the rupture to heal. If you are out of the cast, you need to go into a cam type walking boot to stabilize the injury for further healing. You can expect this to be an issue for some time.
